Anthony is a believer in awareness and the power of knowledge. He believes that the power of knowledge, responsibility and control can be a force for good and that when you have more awareness you can make better decisions about how you can change circumstances that affect the world beyond yourself. Only then can YOU become the cause of change. His interests lie in:
Human Rights initiatives and awareness.
Anti-Drug campaigns.
Building a world free of crime.
Technology for better education and literacy.
Freedom from suppression.
Here are some of the organisations which Anthony recommends:
