GM-free Ireland: Global Vision co-ordinates the GM-free Ireland Network which we founded in 2004 as a multi-stakeholder coalition to keep the island of Ireland free of genetically modified (GM) seeds, crops, trees, fish, livestock, animal feed and food. The network has grown to include the largest number and broadest diversity of stakeholders groups of any NGO on the island, with 130 organisational members and local authorities representing over 1 million citizens. Following our public awareness and lobbying campaign, the Irish Government reversed its previous pro-GM stance in 2007 by announcing its new policy to "seek to negotiate to declare the island of Ireland as a GMO-free zone". A year later, however, no legislation has been passed to implement this goal. Website: www.gmfreeireland.org
Castello di Cennnina:
We are now in the advanced stage of development on Global Vision's €30m international centre of learning, culture and communication for a sustainable future located in a beautiful 12th century castle and village in Tuscany, Italy with a business plan and a 3-D model of final architectural renovations. We are currently seeking philanthropic support of €6m to launch the centre as soon as possible.
Be The Change!: a TV documentary about Peace Child International's Be the Change! project. Filmed on location with 1,000 young people aged 14 - 25 from 120 countries in Morocco in August 2003. Now in post-production.
Ecology of Mind: a documentary film about the emerging global civil society consensus for a sustainable future, seen through the eyes of NGO leaders from around the world at the Rio+10 conference (United Nations World Summit on Sustainable Development) in Johannesburg in 1992. See interview transcripts. Now in post-production.

Image Resonance: a revolutionary music-driven film- and video-editing software application to create a new genre of cinema isomorphic with the way the mind thinks.
