Changes for Humanity is invested in delivering on a promise to make a significant, long-lasting impact on local communities.

Focusing on local-level stakeholders and community empowerment

Identifying and investing in innovative ideas and outlier projects

Implementing Flexible Management Protocols, Workflows and Actions to best suit each project, at each stage

Creating knowledge base and collaboration across different projects

providing guidance and mentoring through the implementation of projects

Working with local businesses to strengthen supply chains

Changes for Humanity will develop systems to provide a near real-time connection for stakeholders to each project. In the case of a new school development, for instance, we will link stakeholders to the building site through video when possible, and pictures and written updates. These will be available in a community intranet on the CFH website. We believe a robust feedback loop will strengthen the efficacy of each project.

While Changes for Humanity may need to engage with local government to execute projects, our focus on community and local-level empowerment is key to reducing the impact of many of the hurdles governments tend to impose on changemakers. Our hope is that we find a way to bring change to communities and affect the lives of our stakeholders in ways which see nearly all of the funding directly benefitting our projects and their intended beneficiaries.

Further, CFH will take chances on innovative ideas, looking at outliers too. Projects in remote areas, or in other difficult settings must not be shied away from. CFH serves as a beacon for ideas that are not fitting the mold. Ideas, after all, come to us from people who know their challenging realities. We must encourage and believe in those ideas.

While every organization aspires, and generally fails, to deliver on streamlined bureaucratic processes, we aim to achieve this by creating and managing protocols, aided by an information system, which consider objectively-measured touch-points and therefore trigger actions within the system to best route the project tasks to conclusion. We believe our team's experience with building and managing technology-backed workflows will result in success here too.

As our network of communities and their projects evolve, we will connect projects sharing comparative advantages globally. This project network, the aforementioned community intranet on changesforhumanity.com, will emphasize the transfer of knowledge, encourage partnerships, embolden further change, and dispel differences across all of humanity. Our Global Citizens Assembly initiative, which will bring together this community in a conference-like forum will be one of the many tools we highlight in achieving our organization's goals.
