This is the iron rule, we run by. It is the only way to build community leaders, and bring about social change using the resources, communities already have. Organising is an empowering experience and it leads to innovation and real change. One that wouldn’t happen effectively if we were to just help communities, without involving them.

We, at Haiyya are campaign strategists, network builders and grassroots organizers. We understand how communities function, what excites and inspires them, how to bring them together and take them through a leadership journey that creates long term change!

Our Theory of Changemaking

  • You

    You have identified a problem in the world. You want to help find a solution for it. And you cannot do it alone.

  • You + Others

    You want to talk about it to others. You want people to relate to the issue, and understand the need to do something about it.

  • You + Others = Scale

    Now you have their attention. How can you turn that into strategies that work for everyone to achieve the same goal, at scale? By investing in leadership, within the community. Create mouthpieces and trigger the gradual shift in mindsets.

  • Wins, Small And Big.

    You have enabled the people to be passionate about the cause. There is a collective strength and the people are inspired and motivated to celebrate every little win on the way. Behavioural shifts take time, and trained leaders will continue to influence the community. Every day.
