IISC builds collaborative capacity in individuals, organizations, & networks working for social justice & racial equity.
About us
People all over the world are trying to work together in more collaborative ways in order to change things for the better – within their organizations, within their communities, and beyond. IISC builds the capacity of people to collaborate for greater social impact by modeling, practicing, and teaching the skills and tools of collaboration. In all of our work, we view collaboration through these three lenses: • Building power, pursuing equity, ensuring inclusion • Leveraging networks for social change • Harnessing love as a force for social transformation IISC provides consulting services to organizations, communities, networks, and others that build their capacity for more effective, equitable and inclusive social change. And we offer workshops that provide participants with the opportunity to learn and practice the skills and tools of collaboration for social change so that they can do everything from designing meetings to building and running organizations and networks with greater social impact. Our work demonstrates the power of bringing together key stakeholders at all levels of a system or issue, including those most impacted, to create a shared vision and strategies for concerted action to achieve that vision. And we are particularly committed to building the leadership and collaborative capacity of grassroots leaders to engage, speak out, and participate fully in determining the policies and decisions that affect their lives and their communities.

If you missed the live session, New and Ancient Wisdom for Shared Leadership: Lessons to (Re)Learn and Unlearn, here’s your chance to view it now. Purchase the recording today: https://lnkd.in/g2_a2PN3 Session Description: We are living in a moment of immense instability. Leaders are expected to model their values while balancing budgets, addressing staff discord, and navigating ideological conflicts. IISC has been supporting collaborative leaders and networks for years; still, to some people, shared leadership sounds like a new and even disruptive concept. In this session, we will explore how shared leadership and interdependence have always been common in nature and in movements for justice. Join us to reflect on lessons we’ve learned – and unlearned – on the path to transformative futures. Together we’ll distill enduring leadership lessons for our times.

For almost 15 years, IISC staff has been supporting new food movement oriented organizations and networks, all working to advance equity, sustainability, wellbeing and trust in food systems and beyond. This has included long-standing work with Food Solutions New England, now one of the leading regional food system networks in the country. A number of FSNE members have been central to the growing Right to Food movement, including Senator Craig Hickman in Maine and our dear colleague Karen Spiller.
