Many of our most vexing social challenges, from poverty to climate change, are borne out of large, complex systems in which the pathway to change is uncertain and non-linear, and patterns and behaviours in the system are deeply entrenched.
Our systems work has focused on strengthening and co-creating the institutions, strategies, and practices that the ECD ecosystem needs to thrive, and increasingly, by situating ECD as a multi-dimensional route to shifting South African inequality.
We strive to record our lessons from this process, with the goal to elevate Global South systems thinking by reflecting on the tactical and theoretical approaches honed by Ilifa.
