The Movement Breakthrough is a framework for social change leaders to understand the different vehicles that are at play in social change work and how they interrelate with one another. This concept allows us to explore and analyze the contradictions and tensions between these different vehicles and how we conflate their issues in different ways. Specifically, these tensions are reflected between individuals and organizations, and organizations and movements. The Movement Breakthrough, also known as the Path of Leadership, also helps us understand the different scales at which social change happens and the journey social change makers embark on in order to create a difference in their respective contexts and levels.

If you are feeling the following problems or issues in your social change work, this workshop this might be good for you:

  • Tension between your organization and rest of the broader movement.
  • A lack of people or organizations that are not movement oriented, just solely focused on their organizations.
  • Tension between leaders in your organization and their individual journeys and the organizations as whole.
  • Gaps where many people want to dedicate their lifetime to this work but don’t have the support to do so.

The following are the dates offered for the 2 modules of the Movement Breakthrough this semester:

Other Time Zones

  • 1pm EST = 10am Pacific & 6pm UK, next day 3am Sydney
  • 6pm EST = 3pm Pacific & 11pm UK, next day 8am Sydney

In each module, participants will join other leaders from different social movements, take time to reflect on the content and do practical exercises to use the materials in their current organizational context.

The content of the Movement Breakthrough is part of a larger set of concepts that are in our Social Movement Course, which is an 11 module self-paced course.

More Information

If you want to attend all 3 Modules, we are excited to offer you this option! You can do so by signing up to one of our Introduction to Movement Building Cohorts:

When enrolling into this series, you are agreeing to abide by Ayni School’s Student Guidelines below.

  • Be respectful – Because of the online nature of the school, we might not know each other, where we are coming from, have different perspectives, backgrounds, beliefs, etc. Because of this, it can be really easy to misinterpret each other. We ask that participants be respectful of each other (and of the trainers) and the experiences that we each have.
  • Be present – Please turn on your camera as much as possible to improve the interactive nature of the training. It makes a big difference in the dynamic of the school if we are able to see each other and our reactions.
  • Support the School – We hold the expectation that you are not sharing links (or materials) to the modules with others who have not registered for the Semester and are abiding honestly by our pricing tiers to the best of your ability.
  • Recordings of the session will not be made available to participants. If you cannot attend a session, we recommend you attend it at another date and time. Supplemental material and slides will be provided and if you would like to experience a module again, you can always repeat before the Semester is over.
  • Honor our time together – There will be breaks that are scheduled during the length of a module, please wait for them as best you can. We also ask that you mute your microphone on Zoom while you are not talking and to write any pressing questions on the chat of the Zoom room so as to not interrupt the trainers.

At the Ayni Institute we are committed to providing high quality trainings that are accessible and support social change leaders, organizations, and movements dedicated to building a more reciprocal world.

We have been inspired by the many models of pricing by scale and gift economies. Please take a few minutes to assess the right tier that you belong to according to our system. 

There are two types of tiers. To determine which of the two tiers to look at, please decide: are you paying out of pocket or are you being sponsored by an organization?
