Because no single intervention can accomplish change on its own, systems transformation only happens when we work collectively and on different fronts, because. To move beyond the incremental, we need ways of working together that are deeper, more exploratory, and more disruptive. This session offers a framework outlining the conditions that hold social and environmental problems in place, and a new way forward that engages and supports the cultural and relationship dimensions of systems change. The conversation includes a funder sharing her experience and insights as she puts these principles into practice.
