      Wazi Project is a new online magazine offering a healthy dose of scepticism and an alternative way of thinking. We deliver a multitude of articles with a strong message on topics ranging from Political Economy to Human Rights to Sustainable Development. Though opinionated, Wazi Project offers clear and rational arguments in stark contrast with what readers can find in the mainstream media.Wazi Project envisions a global information society that is free of dogma and rigid preconceived notions that are based on an antiquated perspective of the world. The team at Wazi Project is not alone in realising that nation-state based democratic capitalism has outlived its usefulness. Therefore, in order to facilitate the development of new ideas, Wazi Project provides a platform where new ideas can be exposed, shared and expanded upon, free from vested interests and conventional wisdom.Traditional doctrines are abandoned in favour of transparency and healthy scepticism. By providing a platform for dissenting voices, alternative views and innovative ideas, we aim to be at the origin of a long-term paradigm shift and a different way of thinking. Rather than developing these ideas in isolation, Wazi Project brings them together with the confidence that this holistic approach will ultimately lead to a better global society.
