🔔 The State of Changemaker Wellbeing Survey closes in THREE DAYS and we'd love for your voice to be part of it!

🌍 When does a survey become more than a survey? When thousands of changemakers from across the globe from grassroots organisers to large foundations, from every sector and every region come together to build the evidence base the field has never had.

💙 The findings being shaped right now will inform research and build the case for real support for the people powering social change worldwide. But every voice that joins between now and May 29 makes those findings stronger, more complete, and more powerful.

🗣️ If your network hasn't had a chance to be part of this yet, there's still time. Three days is enough to make a real difference but only if we act now.

👉 Share the survey with your community before May 29 and help make sure every voice is in it: Link in the Comments.

📅 Closes May 29 Center for Healthy Minds, University of Wisconsin–Madison,

Did our work actually make a difference?

The Tracer Study findings we shared brought together SEF staff, Board members, community leaders, volunteers, mentors, and development partners because the results belong to everyone who was part of the journey. And because those results will now directly shape SEF's strategy and programming going forward.

This is what evidence-based, community-centred development looks like in practice. Not just measuring outputs but listening, reflecting, and letting communities help define what comes. We are Proud to do this work alongside partners who share that commitment. 🤝

📢 Have you already added your voice to the first global survey on changemaker wellbeing?

🌍 The State of Changemaker Wellbeing Survey — led by The Wellbeing Project in partnership with the Center for Healthy Minds (University of Wisconsin–Madison) and Humin — is now open to every changemaker, everywhere. Available in 12 languages, fully anonymous, and designed to generate findings that will inform research and real support for the people driving social change worldwide.

💙 We're sharing this with our community because we believe your voice belongs in this research. The more diverse the voices, the stronger and more representative the findings — and the more powerful the case for real, systemic change.
