began as a search. A patient, steady effort to find the most exemplary people on earth, understand what drives them, and map the quiet force that runs through their lives. What emerged wasn't a list but a landscape — an archipelago of examples, each one distinct, yet connected. A set of lives that, together, offer a way to navigate the world.

Chngmkr is a collective, decentralised map. We ask leading figures across the world to share the inspirations who shape their action — their own list of living examples.
Marseille, France
Ex-sailor Simon Bernard founded Plastic Odyssey, using a ship with recycling tech to fight ocean pollution and train communities worldwide.
Chicago, USA
French-Japanese inventor Cesar Jung-Harada created Protei, an oil-cleaning robot ship, and runs MakerBay to develop eco-tech solutions.
Samsø, Denmark

Geneva, Switzerland
Rob Hopkins founded the Transition Movement in Totnes, England, inspiring communities to build sustainable, resilient futures together.

Chngmkr is for those who feel out of step with the world, moving through the fog, unsure where to turn. It's a quiet reminder that others have walked similar uncertainty, and found their way forward.

The European Organization for Nuclear Research, commonly known as CERN, is one of the world's largest and most respected centers for scientific research in particle physics. Located on the border between Switzerland and France, CERN is home to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's most powerful particle accelerator. This facility has been instrumental in several groundbreaking discoveries, including the confirmation of the Higgs boson in 2012, a fundamental particle that gives other particles their mass. CERN's research not only deepens our understanding of the universe but also drives technological innovation, with applications ranging from medical imaging to the development of the World Wide Web.
