THE COMMUNITY OF SYSTEMIC CHANGE LEADERS CO-CREATING EDUCATION ECOSYSTEMS...

...EMPOWERING EVERYONE TO LIVE FOR A BETTER WORLD
What is the GCL?
The Global Change Leaders (GCL) is an international community who are creating learning ecosystems – at city, region and country level – that empower every young person to contribute to a better world. We are committed to collaboration and systemic action at every scale.
Change Leaders
are those who take the lead in transforming education silos into learning ecosystems that empower the whole person for the whole world. Change Leaders include pioneering innovators, educators, policymakers, thought leaders, and other influencers. Weavers help Change Leaders align, collaborate and increase systemic impact through a process of building communities & teams; capacity & knowledge; conversations & demand.
Our Vision
is a world of learning ecosystems that empower every young person to live for a better world. We envisage a world in which everyone enjoys learning experiences throughout their lives that develop their full potential as active contributors to our collective wellbeing. Our 10-year aim
Our Mission
is to weave a global community of Change Leaders who are collaborating to create learning ecosystems that empower every young person to live for a better world. We aim to create thriving learning ecosystems by helping Change Leaders become more aligned, collaborative and systemic.
What we do
The GCL empowers Change Leaders to become more aligned, collaborative and systemic. We recognise the need for Change Leaders to work in teams within and between organisations – forging collaborative intra- and inter-organisational partnerships that have major systemic impact. We build:
- Communities & teams
- Capacity & knowledge
- Conversations & demand
- Institutional Partnerships that leverage the power of key organisations to catalyse major systemic change
- Whole-System Prototypes that transform entire cities, districts and countries into empowering learning ecosystems.
Theory of Change
There are 3 billion young people living in an increasingly difficult world – a world of accelerating volatility, complexity and hyperconnectivity – exploding population, migration and automation – and intensifying social, economic and environmental problems.
Our Team
Our core values include Openness, Collaboration and Commitment to Systemic Impact. We love to playfully serve our impact mission through Personal Sustainability, Deep Inquiry and Continual Communal Rejuvenation. The GCL is organised to be lean, nimble, and cost-effective.
