Our collection of stories and ideas on how change
leaders are reimagining and co-creating change
that inspires more change
To counter rapidly growing and mutating problems, the speed of execution, building solutions, getting solutions to citizens & responding to challenges as they emerge all influence the speed of solving the problem. And to do so, we need to move from a linear change mindset to an exponential change pathway.

Here’s a sneak peek into what went down when Societal Thinking’s Priya Ajmera and Sanjay Purohit held conversations around AI in the development sector at the Skoll World Forum.
In our Scalers program, we bring together our knowledge, our ecosystem and our thinking hats to travel with the change leaders on the journey of learning how other Societal Platforms work at scale, imagining what will create exponential change and helping them design their action plan.
Societal Exponents are tools that can transform a linear growth curve into an exponential growth curve, faster. They are reusable building blocks that, when reassembled, can solve a completely new problem in a completely new context and at a low cost and higher speed than building a new solution from scratch.
The Goalkeepers report is a great way for me to dig deeper into where we have reached on the SDGs, what gaps exist and where and what we can do better to bridge them.
The Societal Model reflects the ingredients of successful social movements: restoring the agency of people, bringing diverse co-creators together and weaving vibrant networks around a shared vision.
To solve social problems at scale, solvers would need to develop both the eagle and the ant’s point of view, and shift between the two. The eagle’s view offers a colourful and wide picture to find their ‘why’. The ant’s view reveals the context of diverse problems, the right leverage point to solve them locally and gives solvers the pathway to find their ‘what’.
How lego-like building blocks (i.e. Societal Exponents) helped to build faster, respond faster to the demands of the pandemic.
At the heart of the ECHO model is a learning framework that they call “all teach, all learn.” It connects providers in underserved communities (“spokes”) with teams of specialists and experts at regional, national, and global centres (the “hub”).
The moment of truth for education is when the teacher enters the classroom and faces the child. At that point, can a new pathway emerge instead of rote learning and just repeating what’s written in the books?
