About Compassiviste

Of all life on Earth, humans make up only 0.01%. Yet we are solely responsible for the destruction we see. Our planet is being poisoned by overconsumption, driven by capitalism.

A Compassiviste is an activist combining empathy and action to tackle the global social system that causes social disharmony. From overconsumption and racism, to climate change and civil unrest—Compassiviste will examine these issues with only one allegiance—global harmony. It is time for collective action. Compassiviste provides support, solutions and technology to activate progress. We all share this mission to ignite and empower the collective consciousness.

Let’s drive compassion to action.

Our Team

Humans must love always, and always love.

Around the globe, we are witnessing catastrophic levels of poverty. More than a quarter of the world’s human population cannot access clean drinking water. Mental illness impacts more than two billion people. Over 95% of people have a health condition. Animal extinction is rising at an alarming rate. Global warming fuels our own existential anxiety.

I founded Compassiviste in 2020 after a decade of momentous participation in unchecked capitalism, greed, and the unbridled desire for more. I experienced firsthand the destructive tsunami I was becoming. I chose to reverse this and lead to social harmony. To create a world of compassion and harmony, we each have to love always, and always love. This saying has become our tagline and remains at the forefront of everything we do.

Johanna Craven

Compassiviste Publishing Lead

I joined Compassiviste after experiencing first-hand the challenges authors face in the traditional publishing world. I wanted to be a part of building a fairer, more accessible space for everyone with a powerful story to tell.

Ekaterina Reyzbikh

Compassiviste Kitchen Lead

I joined Compassiviste in 2023 because Ali’s philosophy resonated with my belief in solving meaningful problems through creativity and action. As an architect with 19 years of experience, I’ve finally found a space where I can align my work with my values and contribute to real change.

Eldin Kurpejović

Compassiviste Dialogues Lead

I joined Compassiviste because I deeply believe in its vision to minimize suffering among humans, animals, and our planet—something that is impossible without compassion and action. I work in the Compassiviste Dialogues space, where I am responsible for bringing our voice to the people who need to hear it.

Rachel Soland

Compassiviste Film Lead

In 2023, I assisted Ali with a project for Compassiviste, and I quickly realized how well Compassiviste aligns with my personal values and goals of making the world a healthier, kinder place. With Compassiviste Film, I get to be part of the change that compassionately supports artists while also supporting sustainable, eco-friendly efforts that transform our world for the better.

Belén A. Silva

Compassiviste Label Your Carbon Lead

I joined Compassiviste because I deeply believe in Ali’s vision and the way that Compassiviste is seeking to heal our world through the unification of us humans. Carbon is my passion, so Ali and I have worked on the LYC program to bring awareness and education to consumers which is definitely lacking in today’s system. I strongly believe that we can make this happen and spread Compassiviste’s initiatives in our planet!

Maryanne Dersch

Compassiviste Foundation Lead

I am a Compassiviste because I am committed to creating meaningful change. Too often, the nonprofit sector reacts to problems rather than addressing their root causes and building long-term solutions. Compassiviste focuses on driving systemic change to truly end suffering.

Chris Mortensen

Compassiviste Education Lead

I met Ali when I had the opportunity to interview him on my podcast about his vision for making the world a better place. After an incredibly inspirational two hours, I asked Ali how I could join his movement. My lifelong passion is educating people on how we can live in harmony with nature and each other, and Compassiviste perfectly aligns with this mission.

Brigitte Cutshall

Compassiviste Communication Lead

I joined Compassiviste because their mission resonates deeply with my passions for advocacy, storytelling, and creating positive change. I’m grateful to be a part of this movement, which allows me to amplify stories of human connection, understanding, and mutual support — encouraging others to take compassionate action.

Simon Willmes

Compassiviste Tech Lead

Katia approached us, the 369 Studio Team, to help with Compassiviste Kitchen. Through this, we gradually got to know the entire Compassiviste ecosystem. With Ali and Katia, we immediately felt a special connection. This was an important foundation for staying in touch and continuing to refine the movement with the entire team around the globe.

Compassiviste resonates with me on so many levels. That’s why it’s not just a heartfelt mission but also a “once in a lifetime” opportunity to use my personal strengths and make a positive impact out there.

Our Values

Progress is never impossible. We know that change is most likely to occur when we unite. We guard against the exploitation and discrimination that has become an everyday reality for billions. These are not news headlines. These are real people, animals and plants suffering real-world effects of overconsumption, greed, oppression and immorality. But it doesn’t have to be like this. Capitalism is not a mandatory or natural social order.

Through action, we can work to create frontline responses to humanitarian crises, crowdfund for those who need it most, work directly to provide genuine help to victims of these cruelties, protest cruel and oppressive behaviour, and save animals and plants from their never-ending holocaust.

Through education, we can share knowledge and experiences of activists and change-makers to discuss progressive methods freely, unbiasedly, inclusively, and compassionately. Knowledge is mightiest tool for any revolution. We receive the effective power to influence change by our own experienced and intelligent will.

Through creativity, we can relate each other’s stories giving platforms to voices who are too often suppressed. For millennia, stories of the oppressed provide hope and ignition to daring activists empowering newer generations to build better societies. This development cannot cease now during our existential threat.

Through community, we can pool resources to establish real-world effects. We can organise ourselves into a thriving and dynamic force hurling toward meaningful and purposeful long-term solutions. We manifest change through advocacy and action.
