Ashoka
You are who we need. We need everyone.
In our rapidly-changing world, changemakers are the ones who lead us to new solutions and open new paths for meaning, which is often difficult and lonely work. From Ashoka, we are seeing that spirituality and faith can provide additional depth to changemaking when they offer action-wisdom, support resilience, and unlock joy.
Changemakers everywhere are discerning what is worth keeping and what needs to change in centuries-old systems and structures (including religion), and we are creating momentum by putting love and respect in action for the good of all.
From the Spiritual Changemakers Initiative, we:
- Nurture an active community of changemakers that boost the power in everyone.
- Offer opportunities to learn from each other in our wholeness.
- Practice having a fluid mindset.
- Create pathways to change the world, together.

Don't ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive. —Howard Thurman, Theologian and Civil Rights Activist
