Equipping people to drive change

Equipping people to drive change

System change is hard. We help people become better change agents through our projects, partnerships, and Network, and the School of System Change.

We are building a future that’s better for everyone, not just the few – and we do that by increasing people’s capacity to create change within their organisations, their communities and their lives.

A lot of the work we've done over the past year has involved building the internal capacity and leadership skills of our partner organisations, sharing our cutting-edge expertise, tools, trends and insights to help them take a system innovation approach. The insights we've gained from this work have fed into the curriculum for our new School of System Change, but we’ve also enhanced people's understanding of us and our approach to systems change.
