Ashoka is the global network of the world’s leading social innovators. We build networks of pattern-changing social innovators and find high-impact entrepreneurs who creatively solve some of the world’s biggest social challenges. Ashoka envisions an Everyone A Changemaker world: one where all individuals can respond quickly and effectively to urgent social problems and drive change. Ashoka officially launched in the Netherlands in April 2015. Visit the Ashoka Netherlands website for more information about our mission and our Dutch Fellows: www.ashoka.nl.

The Bioregional Weaving Labs (BWL) Collective, co-initiated by Ashoka & Commonland and co-created with Ashoka Fellows, The Weaving Lab, Presencing Institute, and OpEpa is a growing alliance of system-changing organisations that are weaving together critical actors across Europe for a shared purpose and to bring about systemic change. With our bioregional landscape and weaving approach, we can, in 3 years time, create at least 10 strong leadership communities that mobilise and support 1 million changemakers bottom-up to restore, protect, and regenerate 1 million ha of Europe’s land and sea by 2030.

At The Weaving Lab we are dedicated to the thriving of self, society and the natural world. In these times of crisis and opportunity re-imagining our cultures and systems is a critical task for humanity. We are a vibrant learning ecosystem with the purpose to establish weaving as a practice that fosters collaborative action towards profound systemic changes. Our community convenes weavers who co-create a more thriving future. We support systems change efforts across sectors and challenges in 60+ countries. Our community of practice build the capacity of weavers worldwide. With evidence, curated success stories and learning events we showcase and advance our collective impact.
