About InSoC What we do
About InSoC

From citizens’ initiative to institute

The Institute for Social Change (InSoC), emerging from the legacy of the Initiative for Social Change established in March 2009, marks a significant chapter in our organizational development and self-organization. This transition acknowledges its predecessor’s rich organizational history and experiences, paving the way for a reinvigorated vision and mission. InSoC’s vision is to empower individuals and society towards a shared vision by fostering the sustainable development of democratic values, the rule of law, human rights, and human capital. This is achieved through social transformation, challenging the status quo in our society, including institutional injustices, racism, discrimination, and corruption, and pursuing balanced national development strategies. This encompasses the cultivation of values essential for sustainable development, democratic principles, the rule of law, human rights, and human capital through social change and national development.
