Movement Strategy Center understands that transformative movements change the way they think, their structures and systems, the way they live, and even who they are.

Transformative movements recognize that they are whole people, their communities are whole, and because the issues and problems are interconnected their systemic solutions and movements must be interconnected as well. For society to change they need their movements, and the people in their movements, to mirror and embody transformation right now.

Along with a growing wave of movement makers, Movement Strategy Center believes incremental change strategies are inadequate in the face of rapidly accelerating climate disruption and growing inequality. Incremental change strategies cannot keep pace. Because the scale and nature of the problems we face are exponential, their change strategies need to be exponential as well. Transformative strategies are needed to generate the exponential change needed.

Movement Strategy Center’s approach is grounded in four elements that are the core of transformative movement building: leading with audacious vision and bold purpose; deeply embodying the values at the heart of the vision; building radical and deep community around the vision; and using all of that – vision, embodiment, and connection – to strategically navigate toward the future.
