Collaborations between residents, organizations and local governments can create thriving communities.
One Square World (1SW)
builds with communities historically targeted by systemic oppression to transform structures of power.
We design and facilitate group processes and trainings that center Black, Indigenous and People of Color as core stakeholders and decision-makers, creating and implementing policies and systems that are equitable, regenerative, and build liberating, healthy, and prosperous lives and futures.
