About this Opportunity

CrowdDoing is a joint initiative of Reframe It Inc. and Match4Action Foundation that is focused on helping address the UN Sustainable Development Goals and beyond through micro-leadership, massively multi-disciplinary collaboration, and service-learning to support social innovation and social enterprise to achieve systemic change.

CrowdDoing works in sustainability, anti-poverty, public health, education, and research. We approach each collective challenge through the lens of operating leverage for systems change via social innovation. This allows us to identify different under-utilized capacities that could make addressing problems in our society more feasible in the future. At CrowdDoing, each of us adopts a dimension of a larger challenge.

We include broad participation by micro-leaders in systemic change through specific social innovations that we can build together.
