About Berkana Institute

The edge keeps changing. The edge changes in response to what is going on in the world. We take responsibility for staying aware and knowledgeable about events and conditions both locally and globally. We have learned that to identify and balance on the edge we need clear seeing, sanity, bravery, and community. We want to occupy the ever-shifting edge so that we can intelligently discern answers to these questions: What is the work that is needed for the world at this time? Are we the right ones to serve this need? Do we have the conditions and capacities to contribute to this need? Everyone in Berkana is actively engaged in the world, working in many different cultures with people of all ages and in many roles. These people are working to make significant changes that benefit their communities, the planet, and the future. On the ground–with our senses and heart-mind open–we can discern what is working, what is needed, and where things are trending. Once we define the edge, Berkana’s work focuses on: how to educate how to support how to strengthen how to bring together those daring to live the future now. We support life-affirming leaders in a life-destroying time We pioneer a new paradigm for leading change We advance community engagement processes We sponsor trans-local learning We invoke women’s leadership We summon Warriors for the Human Spirit
