Mission & Vision
We are on a mission to turn curiosity into creative, useful, and just solutions.
We envision a future where communities pursue their own creative ideas and inquiry in service of social good.
Values
As a social purpose consulting firm, our values are central in our approach. Here's how we act on our values:
Sustainability
We make decisions that serve future generations and respond to pressing environmental circumstances.
Capacity-building
Instead of creating dependence, we build core skills and confidence among clients, collaborators, and stakeholders so that they can sustain initiatives as we step back.
Community
We volunteer our time to community initiatives, offer pro-bono services and in-kind support for community-led projects, and donate to charities that do anti-oppressive work.
Anti-Oppression
We work to render visible invisible abuses of power, support reflexivity and honest dialogue, and prioritize solutions-focused strategies that elevate the wisdom and imaginations of many worldviews.
We offer fair wages and honoraria to all of our contractors and partners.
We turn down contracts that do not support equity.
Creativity & Imagination
The same thinking that got us into the problem cannot get us out. We embrace risk-taking and use interdisciplinary strategies to re-imagine what is possible. We prioritize arts-based methods and creative problem solving.
Usability & Impact
We work backwards from the desired change, impact, or outcome to design and implement solutions. We do not waste time, resources, ideas, or energy on outputs that no one wants or needs.
Complexity
We embrace the messiness! By evolving alongside ever-shifting issues, we address difficult topics, sit with discomfort, and face challenges with curiosity and humility.
