‘A momentous occasion in history that will leave a lasting impact on the future’ This is how we would describe the events that unfolded in Brazil in the early hours. Led by one of our co-founders, Instituto Beja, we are thrilled to announce the launch of the Centre for Exponential Change in Brazil - Centro para Mudanças Exponenciais (CMe). The CMe is more than an initiative; it represents a pivotal expansion of Instituto Beja’s mission—bringing a philanthropy that is inspiring, innovative, and deeply collaborative to the forefront of social change.

I have listened to this podcast about 5 times, and each time I get something new from it. It's Sanjay Purohit talking to Tulaine M. on her show Say More https://lnkd.in/emKiuTgh https://lnkd.in/e2dHKkAQ Here are some of the reflections that I loved: >Music practice nurtures your creative mindset >Don't distribute solutions, distribute the ability to solve >An elephant is not a big mouse, and 2000 mice do not make an elephant. You need to think about scale as a design challenge, not a replication challenge. >The question isn't "how can we scale?" the question we have to deal with is "are we creating the right conditions for scale?" >Strengthen fragile knowledge by repeating it, and teaching it back > It's more about "co" than about "creation". When you mix blue and yellow you get green. Green is neither yellow nor blue. When you distribute the ability to solve, you might not immediately recognise the solutions that are created. #systemschange #inspiration #socialchange

Akshvi: Elevating Climate-Vulnerable Voices   At #BeckNodeZero2024 , SEEDS introduced Akshvi—a national-level platform - designed to enable affected communities to assess and record their own losses at #BeckNodeZero2024. This innovation captures not just data - but ensures the rights and dignity of communities. Akshvi leverages open networks and Digital Public Infrastructure to reimagine loss reporting and strengthen climate resilience.   Aligned with the #BeckNodeZero protocol’s focus on interoperability, Akshvi is a step towards democratising access and empowering climate-vulnerable communities. I'm delighted to say that leaders at the event recognised Akshvi as a vital tool for bridging gaps and enabling affected communities to document their stories of loss and resilience.   Special thanks to Sattva and FIDE for organising #BeckNodeZero2024 and creating a platform to showcase the power of open networks and collaborative innovation. SEEDS envisions a future where tech not only connects, but also empowers the last mile, driving community-led and sustainable change.   #TechForGood #ClimateResilience #VoiceOfTheLastMile #CommunityEmpowerment #ClimateAction #SEEDS #DigitalTransformation #SocialImpact #Akshvi #Beckn #OpenNetworks #ThankYou #Digitalpublicinfrastructure Sattva Consulting Beckn Protocol Societal Thinking Centre for Exponential Change Sanjay Purohit Divya Gupta Amar Kumar Shalaka Kumar Pramod Varma Centre for Digital Public Infrastructure - CDPI
