What is Participatory Change?
Curious about what we mean by participatory change? At the highest level, participatory change is a multifaceted approach that amalgamates popular education, systems change, regenerative design, and community organizing to catalyze meaningful participation and systems change at whatever level you are working. At its core, participatory change is about democratizing the process of change. It’s about moving away from a model where a select few make decisions that affect many, to a model where everyone has a voice and a role in shaping their future.
