Company activities and impact

MissionAA CIC researches, funds and catalyses projects promoting greater solidarity and collaboration for the emergence of ecologically regenerative societies. Our RoleWe incubate projects and connect actions that foster the following:a greater expression of intrinsic values - a culture shift towards love, connection and tolerance, providing a positive alternative to rising fear and othering, shared understandings of the systemic natures of the crises we face and connections across siloed issues, urgency around the breadth and depth of changes required.Impact:Solidarity Matters programme with ‘train the trainer’ facilitation training Continuing on the Solidarity Matters work begun in 2019, AA worked alongside a range of delivery partners in India, Malaysia, Africa and the US decentralised network during 2022. A networked delivery model saw the first iterations with programmes led by regional and sectoral hubs. This accounted for the majority of expenditure over the year.
