It’s a beautiful irony that the movement for a future that’s better, not bigger, is… growing!

So many people are committing their efforts to creating a truly equitable, livable future for all.

This #GivingTuesday, in the spirit of collaboration and co-creation that drives us here at the Post Growth Institute, we’re encouraging you to explore and support the work of our partners and other groups we admire. We find their ideas and projects so informative and inspiring, and perhaps you will too!

Supporting these groups can occur in many forms — from reading about their work or following them on social media, to making a donation or volunteering your time (for more ideas, see our list of ways to help).

Organizations are grouped using the six layers model that former Post Growth Institute co-director, Jennifer Hinton, and I designed in 2016 (this model analyzes social change across six layers: behaviors, feelings, conditions, frameworks, values, and constructs).

So here they are!

Groups working to engender cultures of greater reciprocity and care, often at the community level:

Groups working to better understand and enact feelings of greater safety and security, for all:

Groups working to promote purpose-led institutions, policies and ‘technologies’:

Groups working to strengthen frameworks that circulate money, power and resources:

Groups working to deepen anti-oppressive practice throughout the world:

Groups working to reconnect our societies to the stories, symbols, mythologies (and spaces in between) that nurture our better nature:

We’re so grateful to be part of such an amazing ecosystem. Here’s to the purpose-driven future we’re co-creating!
