Better Humans, Better World: Mastering the Inner Development Goals

About

The world's biggest problems aren't solved by better strategies alone, they're solved by better humans. This workshop is about becoming one. What kind of person do I need to become to create the change I want to see in the world? This is the question at the heart of this course.

The Inner Development Goals framework
In 2015, the UN adopted 17 Sustainable Development Goals to end poverty, promote prosperity, and protect the planet. Progress has been underwhelming. Swedish pioneers realized why: the root problem lies in our lack of inner capacity. After three years of research involving more than 4,000 scientists and practitioners, they presented the Inner Development Goals: five dimensions (Being, Thinking, Relating, Collaborating, and Acting) encompassing 25 skills to help us achieve the Sustainable Development Goals and live purposeful, sustainable, and productive lives.

The aim of this five-day workshop is to explore this rich framework in fine-grained detail and breathe life into it by applying it to our own lives. How does inner work translate into concrete outer impact? What kind of person do I need to become to contribute meaningfully to the world I care about? This is personal development that doesn't stop at self-improvement, it extends into becoming a source of positive change in the world. If you care about the Sustainable Development Goals but know that outer change requires inner work, this workshop offers that integration
