* Mentor and energise local leaders, turning individual wins into coordinated campaigns that shift systems.
* Design and deliver cutting‑edge organising and leadership training that equips 135+ emerging changemakers to act together.
* Guide each initiative toward self‑sufficiency—so by 2027 the movement is self‑governing, connected and impossible to ignore.
The wins you bring
* A track record of campaigns that moved the needle on injustice—and the stories to prove it.
* Skill in mapping power, crafting public narrative, running mass actions and negotiating with decision‑makers.
* Confidence to coach others, facilitate tough conversations and celebrate big, public victories.
