SIX believes in the transformative power of people working together. Exchanges based on mutual value and reciprocity are the missing link in tackling the world’s problems. As a friendly, expert entry point to global social innovation, our work connects organisations, sectors, communities and nations to build capabilities and create opportunities for collaboration. When we open the world, people connect and discover the collective power to change their societies for the better.
Cross Sector
We believe in different sectors working together – no one sector or organisation has all the answers. We can learn a lot from different people with different perspectives and by working together we can leverage the best of every organisation.
Global
We believe in being open to the world — best examples can come from anywhere. Global exchange of good ideas helps us tackle local challenges better.
Exchange
We believe that the exchange of experiences and knowledge drives positive social change. Work centred in mutual value and reciprocity delivers powerful outcomes and is at the heart of all we do.
People
Our team is based in the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia, Singapore and Hong Kong, and our executive board stretches from San Francisco to Adelaide. These diverse perspectives inform the creation and spread of social innovation knowledge and learning throughout and beyond our field.
