Maybe you don’t realise it, but…..
You are already Changing the World
1. I have a responsibility to make positive changes in society
2. I have the power and resources (tangible and intangible) to make a difference
3. I take initiative to bring about innovative change, local and systemic
4. I work with others to maximise impact, working in groups and networks
5. I know and live authentically according to my values
6. I practice empathy; by entering, by a willed use of the imagination, another person's world without judgment

What if it’s not just me?What if there is a group of us, making changes?What if there is a lot of us?What if the whole UNIVERSITY was making changes?
