Exposing everyday harm and the impacts
This initiative surfaces the harm that hides in everyday actions and inaction. It’s about revealing harm, exposing patterns, mapping the fallout, and refusing to let harm slide.
The question What harm did you do today invites you to notice, reflect, and take accountability.
Harm identification, reduction and prevention.
Aim: To expose and prevent ‘everyday’ harm through art, education and advice.
Opportunity cost
One of the most overlooked impacts of harm that is rarely acknowledged or compensated is opportunity cost. It’s the harm caused by what can’t happen because time, energy, or focus is drained elsewhere. The errors, the follow‑ups, the delays, the silence, the bureaucratic detours - they all steal bandwidth. That lost bandwidth could have been spent earning income, achieving goals, supporting others, or enhancing wellbeing. Instead, it’s consumed by the people and systems that fail to respond, leaving people with less time and energy, less money, damaged health, less progress, and less happiness.
Harm defined
It’s anything that substantially decreases wellbeing or damages a life. The impacts can be physical, psychological, neurological, social or financial. Harm isn’t always obvious. It can be the stress that lingers, the income lost, the residual anger, the work delayed, or the cruelty disguised as ‘normal’.
The How
This initiative uses art to educate and raise awareness.
Think of it as a pro bono accountability campaign. Art becomes a tool to surface patterns, provoke reflection, and make harm visible.
Everyday omissions matter. Everyday choices carry weight.
Everyday harm – seen, named, called out.
