At Turning Point Magazine, we believe that solving complex global challenges requires the power of community and cross-sector collaboration. We are proud to be a member of Catalyst Now, a global movement of social innovators, organizations, and visionaries dedicated to accelerating systems change and fostering a more equitable world.
This partnership aligns our mission of grassroots storytelling with a global network designed to ignite innovation and drive sustainable social impact.
The Mission: Accelerating Systems Change
Catalyst Now is more than an organization; it is a dynamic ecosystem that supports social innovators by bridging the gap between local action and global influence. Their work is built on the belief that those closest to the problems are best equipped to solve them.
Through this network, Catalyst Now focuses on:
-
Ecosystem Development: Creating spaces for social innovators to connect, share resources, and scale their impact.
-
Narrative Shifting: Empowering organizations like Turning Point to change the way the world views development, moving from "charity" to "agency and dignity."
-
Cross-Sector Collaboration: Uniting governments, NGOs, and the private sector to address the root causes of poverty and inequality.
Impactful Initiatives
Catalyst Now drives change through several key platforms that empower its members:
-
Catalyzing Change Week: The world’s largest event led by social innovators, focused on finding practical solutions to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
-
Social Innovation House: A collaborative hub for learning, mentorship, and the exchange of soft skills and technology.
-
Learning Series: Targeted programs designed to equip leaders with the tools needed to navigate the complexities of social change.
Our Shared Vision
By joining forces with Catalyst Now, Turning Point Magazine Africa is able to bring grassroots realities into global decision-making spaces. Together, we are building a future where every community has the platform to share its innovations and every "unsung hero" is celebrated on a continental and global stage.
As our CEO Michael Ager notes, this partnership is a seamless alignment of values using the power of narrative to foster inclusivity, authenticity, and shared success.
