We envision a world where people, organizations, communities, nations, and ecosystems are thriving and resilient. We envision a world where the practice of sustainable development enables humanity's innate capacity to evolve in response to the complexity of global issues. We envision people with different perspectives contributing to meaningful change by uniting insight with action. We believe that the integral framework is uniquely able to help us accomplish this vision.

Our mission is to develop the capacity and consciousness of social change practitioners, organizations, and communities, both locally and internationally, to respond to the complexity of current issues with greater depth, flow and effectiveness. We do this using innovative processes and practices in relation to an integral framework.

In this website, we want to acquaint you with who we are, how we think about things, and what we're doing in your community and in the world. In the following pages, you'll find:

  • Background reading how our organization came to be;
  • Descriptions of the framework we use;
  • Outlines on the projects we are involved in with links to blogs and articles;
  • Resources that you can download for free;
  • Events and other ways you can get involved;
  • Photos that say far more than words.

 Welcome, and enjoy...

 

Drishti is the foundation of a community that is turning outward to the world, committed to something much bigger than their circle alone, while also consisting of individuals who are looking inward, to work with their own self-awareness. Engaging actively, while cultivating mindfulness, is not something you often come by in today's fast paced social change context.

To be candid, the leadership retreat has rekindled my interest in actualizing my dreams despite all odds.
