Open-Sourcing Social Change: Engaging networks for social justice and leadership development
Our nation’s social and economic challenges often appear intractable because so many policies, practices, and institutions interact in complex ways that yield inequitable results. As a result, social justice organizations are increasingly realizing that no one institution or sector is capable of addressing these problems on its own.
