THE INSTITUTE FOR GLOBAL TRANSFORMATION® 
business 3
These areas of focus are designed to provide hands-on opportunities for participants to contribute to humanity's shared journey toward a more enlightened global community, while also encouraging and supporting the development of personal interests, talents, and transformational experiences. Individuals and groups are encouraged to reach beyond themselves, to create and implement service projects with the potential for significant local, national, and global impact. Activities within each of these Branches of Service grow as individuals express a desire to participate in the group's activities and service projects.
Activities

All of our classes, courses of study, and community service projects embrace a spiritually inspired purpose. Spirituality is the unifying essence of being that gives shape and meaning to life. "It is characterized by unfolding mystery, interconnectedness and inner strength. Spirituality permeates all of life and is manifested in one’s being, knowing, and doing. It is expressed and experienced uniquely by each individual through and within connections to God/Life Force/the Absolute, the environment, nature, other people, and the self. Spirituality shapes the self-becoming and is reflected in one’s being, knowing, and doing." ~Margaret Burkhardt and Mary Nagai-Jacobson. 

Classes and Courses

group2Classes and courses of study contribute to our shared journey toward higher consciousness by encouraging participants to utilize the wisdom of higher consciousness in the development of classes, retreats, and courses of study. Each area of focus is supported by classes, conversational salons, lectures, seminars, forums, courses of study and retreats.  Educational activities are conducted by individuals with extensive knowledge and training in their subject.  

Local, National, and Global
Service Projects

group 3Service projects are created by the members of each group and are supported by the entire membership. When creating service projects, individuals align their purpose and goals, and collaborate with others in order to create projects with the potential of making a significant difference.  This process advances the exploration of group creativity and the dynamics of group work. Projects that result from these endeavors are of valuable service to the local, national, and world community. Additionally, these areas of focus are a laboratory in which participants hone their ability to act in conscious cooperation with others, thus supporting a growing sense of community.  When beneficial to the mission of the Institute For Global Transformation®, we also collaborate and partner with other individuals and organizations.
