The Solidarity Experiment

The Solidarity Experiment exists because the world needs you, now more than ever. 

But the reality is, you’re at high risk of burnout.

Let’s face it: chronic stress in our sector is real. 

The good news? You don’t have to tackle it alone.

What’s in it for you?

• Build connections and expand your network with like-minded changemakers.
• Learn practical, proven strategies you can apply directly to your work.
• Find renewed hope for a better future in the humanitarian sector.

How does this work?

• The vision: End humanitarian burnout in 10 years or less, starting with ourselves.
•  The belief: A happier, healthier humanitarian workforce benefits everyone—including those we serve.
• The vehicle: Cross-sector peer support and experiential learning.
  
• The timeline: Systems change takes time, but you’ll start seeing results right away.
• The levels: We’ll work on personal awareness, interpersonal dynamics, cross-sector partnerships, influencing formal power holders (leaders, board members, and donor representatives), and reinventing organizations.
• The transformation: Right now, you might feel lost, lonely, and low impact. But together, we can feel guided, connected and respected.
• The dream: Over time, The Solidarity Experiment will prove there’s a better way to work: a mutual aid society that’s values-aligned and trust-based.

What makes this different?

• Here the focus is 100% on the well-being of the humanitarian workforce—something no one else is prioritizing in this way.
• This is crowd-funded by participants, with a portion of contributions supporting those with fewer resources through a Solidarity Fund.
• This isn’t a short-term initiative. It’s designed to last for at least 10 years, recognizing that real change takes time.
