CHT's mission is to catalyze a humane future. We reframe the insidious effects of persuasive technology, expose the runaway systems beneath, and deepen the capacity of leaders across sectors and global decision-makers to take wise action. In 2020, CHT was thrilled to support the development and release of The Social Dilemma, the Emmy-winning Netflix documentary directed by Jeff Orlowski on the existential threats posed by social media, reaching an estimated 100 million viewers worldwide.
