4. Theory of Change

4.1. We need communities that are better able to respond to stress and a world that is reducing the likelihood of our communities being under stress.

4.2. We are making some progress toward these goals but the progress is not happening quickly enough.

4.3. We believe we can accelerate the pace of change by more effectively managing the process for creating that change; specifically, by improving the process of managing solutions.

4.4. We believe that there are great processes for creating specific solutions that respond to specific problems; however, there do not exist great tools to take those solutions and 1) share them for re-use and peer review, 2) deconstruct them for re-use and re-mixing of the components.
