Kingston Common Futures’ purpose is to challenge historic imbalances of power and systems of oppression while working towards an inclusive and collaborative ecosystem empowered to serve the common good.

We stand in solidarity with our communities as we work to disrupt and reform our economic system. During today’s economic blackout, we encourage everyone to embrace the principles of Just Transition and recognize the power of everyday people to drive change. 

We hold so much gratitude for the resilient and caring network of partners, leaders, supporters, community members, and initiatives that have inspired and worked with us to manifest more just and generous ways of working, collaborating, and, well, being.

Good Work Institute is thrilled to announce the culmination of a multi-year collaborative design process that tackled how to create a democratically-controlled community fund for the benefit of Kingston.

An hour could only cover so much, but what was offered was deep, personal and from a place that truly questions our relationship to all existence.

We at GWI are so happy to welcome two new team members to our collaborative Good Work!

Busy cultivating new and deepening existing relationships with organizations and individuals that have a desire to bring a culture of shared leadership into their own workplaces.

It is with gratitude and excitement that we welcome our newest board members, Allison Lamb, David Brownstein and Kate Cox! 

From hands-on activities that gave us a taste of what cooperation and competition feel like to crafting stories of regenerative futures, it was energizing to retreat from our regular day-to-day lives to connect and learn in an inspiring community of co-learners. 

Nate Hagens makes a strong case for choosing a different path forward. What struck me most, is that just how much the answers are rooted in love.

We see our fiscally-sponsored projects as partners in our mission to build collective power.

We spend most of our time at work, so what better place than our workplaces to learn to practice democracy and work toward a Just Transition?
