About this listen

An exploration of Bahá’í-inspired approaches to social action, one of the key pillars of 'society building'.

In Part Two, we explore how our approaches should be participatory, giving agency to all. We discuss how this builds on the construct of 'universal participation' and frame agency as both right and responsibility. We conclude by focusing on the change each of us can make in our lives and in the lives of the communities around us.
