It’s All About Power
The Power Project calls for a new way of thinking about power, and action to build solidarity in social change.
Many people do not find the social sector a welcoming or useful place through which to seek change.

Some choose to operate outside the social sector. They are not waiting for others to share power with them.
>>>
Much of the most impactful change is being driven by and with people who have experience of poverty and inequality.
>>>
Despite concern in the social sector, examples of genuine partnership with people with experience of poverty and inequality are rare.
>>>
Even where the will exists, common approaches to working together often create as many problems as they solve.
>>>
Professionals’ perception of their own power doesn’t match the perception of others.
