About Worldshapers

Worldshapers is focused on specific large-scale issues that are currently and potentially significant causes of human and non-human suffering. Our initial current cause areas—Animal Protection, Civic Engagement, and Global Resilience—are presented on this website, and they have been selected based on assessments of their significance, their relative neglectedness, and the extent that changes in culture and discourse can create meaningful improvements.

We support visionaries by helping them turn their ideas into influential books and content, expanding their audience, and fostering meaningful change.

Many motivated advocates possess the vision but lack the resources or platforms to effectively share their message. Worldshapers bridges this gap by providing comprehensive support to emerging thought leaders, enabling them to refine their ideas, create compelling arguments, and distribute their message to the right audiences. By amplifying these voices, we aim to accelerate progress toward a more just, equitable, and resilient world.

Worldshapers is founded by Mikko Järvenpää, who brings a wealth of experience at the intersection of marketing, technology, media, and social advocacy. Before establishing Worldshapers, Mikko founded Sentient Media, a nonprofit journalism organization dedicated to increasing transparency and reporting on the impact of animal agriculture on the world.
