The Good Market digital commons makes it easier to find and connect with social enterprises, cooperatives, responsible businesses, networks, community initiatives, and changemakers creating a better world.
Together, we’re building resilient economies that are good for people and good for the planet.
These economies are emerging because millions of us are prioritizing people and planet in our daily lives, our work, and our communities.
We buy less but buy better. We purchase from, partner with, work for, invest in, and support enterprises that care about people and the planet.
We share information, collaborate, and participate in groups and networks that are catalyzing change.
Mapping the movement makes it visible and helps more people channel funds into the emerging economy, where it can continue to circulate.

Are you looking for products or services? Do you want to find and connect with others? Visit the digital commons.
The digital commons is shared infrastructure sustained by the people who use it.
Basic services are free and always will be, but many enterprises subscribe to support the commons. Networks have invested in new functionality that benefits everyone.
The current focus is on transitioning to an open protocol so participants can share their information across platforms and access new opportunities.

Good Market followed a lean startup approach. It began in Sri Lanka in 2012 with no grant funding or external working capital.
The curation process and community were initially developed through weekly marketplace events, retail outlets, and an organic participatory guarantee system (PGS). These social enterprises made it possible to start software development for the global digital commons in 2016.
