examples areas of action that you will see reflected in every experience of<br />

this book.<br />

Undoubtedly, these experiences inspire and teach that, as citizens, we have<br />

the challenge and responsibility of becoming active agents of this transformation,<br />

being attentive, getting involved in finding solutions to tackle existing<br />

problems and help reduce social inequalities. Because addressing real<br />

needs, we can generate innovation and social change.<br />

It is time to act, time to share. Here, there. Wherever. The boundaries are<br />

blurred to a common attitude. People connected together by their causes,<br />

convinced that we all, together, can transform the world.<br />

Everyday heroes are not sitting to wait for better times, this is our time.<br />

Collective heroes, able to empathize and use the transformative power of<br />

technology to change the course of what concerned or outraged about<br />

them. Social heroes, anonymous, privileged citizens, empowered, using<br />

their right of being on the Internet, responsibly, with a clear objective: to<br />

produce a social, economic and human enhancement.<br />

Citizens heroes making a difference.<br />
