What inner capacities do we need for sustainable organizing?

We often focus on strategy, tactics, and external change while neglecting the inner work that makes transformation sustainable. The Inner Development Goals framework helps us connect personal growth with collective liberation.

This workshop explores five dimensions of inner development: being (relationship to self), thinking (cognitive skills), relating (care for others), collaborating (social skills), and acting (driving change). We'll examine how strengthening these capacities supports both our wellbeing and our ability to build liberatory movements.

What we'll do together:

• Introduction to the Inner Development Goals framework.

• Self-assessment: exploring our own inner development.

• Connect inner capacities to organizing challenges we face.

• Practice specific skills for each dimension.

• Create personal commitments for ongoing growth.

This work isn't separate from organizing. It's the foundation that allows us to stay present, connected, and effective in movements for the long haul.
