Social Change Institute 2011: Impact & Inspiration
By: Mike Rowlands.
Date: June 17th, 2011Excruciating joy. That’s as close as I can get to articulating the atmosphere at the 2011 Social Change Institute.
Hosted at Hollyhock, June 8 – 12, SCI brought together a group of 55 remarkably diverse individuals, each of whom is working on one or more of the most significant challenges we face: From the need to rethink our organizations and how they’re structured, to unification of distinct generations in service of challenges bigger than each of them, to the recognition that adaptation to climate change will be as challenging as reversing it, the questions posed at SCI required both widely expansive thinking and deep, personal engagement. And it is precisely there that the greatest lessons of SCI 2011 began.
