OUR REASON FOR BEING

Collective Imagination was founded on the belief that the brilliance and resources to address the world’s most intractable problems lies within us and the organizations we form.

OUR founding values

Collective Imagination was founded on three core values that are embedded throughout our work:

THE POWER OF CO-CREATION

Brand imagery - 4 quadrants of a circle coloured green, yellow, black and red
The ideas we collectively build will always be stronger than those we build alone.
Our work strives to acknowledge the brilliance in each person, co-creating spaces for dialogue that allow peoples’ most preciously held ideas to shape the highest expression of our collective wisdom.  

A RESPECT FOR HUMAN DIGNITY

The complex and fractious issues before us can only be addressed through deep, trusting partnerships across society.  The foundation of those trusting relationships must be an ever-deeper respect for each other’s human dignity.
Our work seeks to build long-term, trusting relationships through which co-creation can flourish. 

THE PRESENCE OF JOY

A just society is the foundation of that which we seek. We aspire to the place beyond that state: a world in which we collectively centre joy.
We acknowledge the immense complexities in the work of social change, but strive to foster a culture of joy – one in which together we thrive.

We live by these values – striving to support individuals, organizations and networks committed to centering community expertise in the work to co-create pathways towards a more just and joyful society.
