Let’s work together to widen the circle of human concern
Belonging is beloved community.
Belonging is about getting all people into the circle of human concern, but this aspiration is not easily accessed by everyone. Some people find it more difficult to reach the goal than others. This is why we employ a dual strategy of cultural and structural belonging.
By looking at culture and structure, we ensure we are addressing the people within the circle and the circle itself.
Empowering People
Cultural belonging is about transforming people -- how we treat each other is informed by what we learn and challenging the existing stories we believe about one another.
Through Empower Initiative's cultural strategies, we support organizational culture-building through leadership development offerings.
Empowering Ecosystems
Structural belonging is about empowering ecosystems -- how we ensure that the most vulnerable people among us have agency within the circle of human concern.
Through Empower Initiative's structural strategies, we empower communities in service to sustainable outcomes.
