Mainstreaming Healing Practices into
Systems Change Globally
Collective Change Lab helps social change practitioners and philanthropists transition into deeper ways of solving social problems.
Our inequitable systems remain stuck in cycles of harm and disconnection.
What will it take to heal and transform systems for everyone?
Our societal systems—designed within and perpetuating cycles of trauma—are not evolving into systems that prioritize healing and wholeness. From education and healthcare to housing and food, these systems continue to operate in ways that deepen harm rather than foster collective flourishing.
Philanthropic Toolkit to Support Transformational Systems Change
The Collective Change Lab is proud to introduce the Philanthropic Toolkit for Transformational Systems Change — a resource designed to help the giving sector adopt deeper, more relational approaches to addressing entrenched societal challenges. Drawing on three years of work with leading systems change practitioners and community leaders, the toolkit offers insights and experiential practices in four key areas of transformational philanthropy.
At its heart, this toolkit is more than a resource—it is an invitation.
