We're Building a Movement for Grassroots Change
We believe that every individual has the power to create positive change in their community and the world - we just need to give them the right tools! We collaborate with our community & beyond through workshops & events to facilitate co-creation and collaboration between individuals, groups and organisations working across the social change space.
School of Social Impact
Through our School of Social Impact, we bring high-quality, accessible social impact education to changemakers around the world. Our online programs and open-access resources teach the foundations of effective impact work—Theory of Change, impact strategy, systems thinking, and design thinking—in ways that are practical, flexible, and grounded in real-world change-making.
Changing Times Media
Changing Times Media is our media and communications initiative, designed to amplify positive stories and spark meaningful conversations. From our podcast, Changemaker Q&A, to our print and digital publication, Changing Times Newspaper—launched during the COVID-19 era—we create platforms for young people to share ideas, reflect on global challenges, and inspire collective action through storytelling.
Community Building and Network
We believe change happens in community. That’s why we host in-person workshops, events, and collaborative projects with local schools, grassroots organisations, and youth networks to build strong, values-aligned communities of practice. Whether designing impact strategies or creating space for shared learning, we’re here to grow a more connected and resilient ecosystem of changemakers.
See Us in Action
Curious about what our work looks like on the ground? From hands-on workshops to creative collaborations and strategy sessions with young changemakers, our in-person programs are where theory meets practice—and where transformation begins.
The Humanitarian Changemakers Network was founded in 2020, evolving out of a series of SEQld-based workshops and resources created by our founder, Tiyana J, who had almost a decade of experience working and volunteering in the social change space. Today, we are a hybrid social enterprise, engaging in trade through our platforms School of Social Impact (education), Changing Times (media), and Theory of Change AU (consulting), and redistributing profits to fund our impact initiatives.
Our goal at the Humanitarian Changemakers Network is to create an enabling environment for people to be able to access role models, opportunities, and resources, to catalyse them to become agents of change and scale up their impact— by building strong networks, developing their capacity, changing narratives, and taking direct action in the community.
