The Social Change Ecosystem Map

The Social Change Ecosystem Guide by Deepa Iyer offers a reflective and practical framework to help individuals, organizations, and networks understand their roles within broader movements for equity, justice, and liberation. Anchored by a visual map and role descriptions, the guide invites users to identify their values, situate themselves within interconnected ecosystems, and reflect on how they contribute to social change through roles such as Visionary, Caregiver, Disruptor, and more. It provides a structured process for self-assessment, collective mapping, and strategic planning, encouraging alignment between personal purpose and collective action. Designed to foster sustainability, collaboration, and resilience, this tool serves as a compass for those navigating social transformation, especially in times of uncertainty or crisis.
