What is systems change

Systems change is work that leads to transformational change. The kind that lasts, not just short-term support.

Systems change work includes:

  • addressing the root cause of long-term problems, not just the symptoms
  • helping prevent problems before they happen
  • changing rules, habits or ways of working
  • giving communities more control over decisions and resources
  • helping people and organisations work together differently
  • challenging what’s seen as important or possible
  • developing a project that is scalable or could work elsewhere
