What we have learned in our work around the globe is that there is no sustainable social progress without social movements โ without ordinary citizens, those who need the change the most, taking the lead on their own behalf.

This is worth saying again and again. How does your strategy drive "taking the lead" to the people who need the change the most? Big social movements are relay races not sprints or marathons. It can be a slow path. You better practice the handoff before you are in the final turn.
It can be a hard path. But if you don't show
me the path you are going to loose.
Solid network-centric investments ALWAYS open up that path to engage the people that need the change and support them in the path to leadership.
