MAD - Make A Difference

We won’t solve today’s challenges with the same mindset that created them. Even less so the challenges of tomorrow. That’s why we bring mad people together around the biggest societal challenges of our time. We are a global community of changemakers with the shared deep desire to Make A Difference. MAD Changemakers operate in +40 Countries across Africa, Middle East, North and Latin America, Europe, and Asia, with more than 60 organisations that range across industries and sectors. Together, we contribute to the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals, addressing areas such as Conflict Transformation, Environment and Energy, Gender Equality, Health and Education. THE VISION OF MAD: We believe in bold visions and courageous dreams. Daring to be conscious, challenging boundaries, manifesting results. Addressing the problems that really matter. Pushing our intellectual barriers, crafting strategies. Taking responsibility, an active choice of empowerment. Unleashing potential within ourselves, as well as the markets and people around us. We crave impact. We believe in action. Getting shit done. Knowing that we are stronger together. Knowing there is a spark of madness within each and everyone. We urge you to listen to it. Embrace it. We bring mad people together. To make a difference today for tomorrow. We are a family, bound not by geography, religion nor culture, but by a fundamental belief that we can create a world free of poverty, inequality and injustice. We are MAD. Mad to Make A Difference. THE MAD CHANGEMAKERS We are a community of provocative researchers and entrepreneurs, social justice activists and philosophers, courageous migrants and company leaders, mind-boggling artists and writers, creative engineers and lawyers, curious diplomats and backpackers. We've represented the United Nations, spoken at TEDx talks, been featured in the New York Times, Harvard Business Review and more. But first and foremost - We are a family.
