About positive society news

This is where stories about people and the systems we share end up: civic life, social progress, human rights and research on how we treat one another. Some are small local wins; others are milestones years in the making.

Society news is often heavy, so fewer stories here clear the default positivity threshold than in most topics. Lower the spectrum if you’d like to see more of the full picture.

Over the last month, most society stories here came from BBC World News, The Guardian World and Psychology Today.

Hopeflo checks its sources every hour and scores each story from 0 (heavy) to 100 (uplifting) with AI. By default you see stories that score 40 or more; the spectrum at the top of the page changes that. How Hopeflo works
