We create pathways for individuals and organizations to be part of the ever evolving and dynamic global movements for social justice. We work to challenge implicit paradigms, to understand our history to make sense of our present and influence the future. We welcome and support all peoples and organizations that share our values and vision to address global inequalities worldwide.
