Sharing economy or collaborative consumption, involves a sharing of resources between two or more people or companies instead of individual ownership through information technology. It can be in terms of goods, e.g. selling your old stuff in eBay. It can be transportation, e.g. renting your car on Uber. It can be through property, e.g. listing your house on Airbnb. And, it can also mean selling your time, skills and expertise through online work platforms like UPwork and Freelance. The sharing economy believes in the principle that “unused value is wasted value”. Goods, properties, time, skills, etc. while on idle can be used for income-generating purposes instead of letting them go to waste. This can be a very sustainable practice especially with the growing problem of environmental exhaustion.
