BIG Change

Loading player...
BIG Change is a self-help, bottom-up strategy to change South Africa.

The strategy focuses on the Christian network that is interwoven with the fabric of the South African society. The Christian network is the biggest common denominator across South Africa’s diverse society. If you choose to look at South Africa in this way, then we are not such a diverse society after all. What if this is a largely unrecognised and therefore underutilised resource? What doors can it open for South Africa, if any?

To unpack BIG Change, we will answer three questions:
- WHY do we think BIG Change is such a good strategy?
- WHO will be the role players in BIG Change?
- HOW can BIG Change be implemented?
