The Inheritance Project

1 followers

The Inheritance Project helps you understand yourself and others to bridge divides, build trust, and create communities of belonging. Our inheritance is more than the physical items passed from one generation to the next. It includes the beliefs and behaviors we inherit from our family and society, as well as our ancestry, social conditions, culture, and values. It is the accumulation of our unique lived experiences that shape the individuals we are. Inheritance is not just something we come into, it’s what we connect through. OUR METHODOLOGY Traditional approaches to Inclusion, such as bias trainings, often focus on external differences, which is surface level and ineffective. We want to foster true evolution. That’s why we create immersive programs that dive deep into our own inheritance and inherited belief systems — those we celebrate, and those we hide — to empower real change. All our programs are built on these principles: Self Inquiry, Embodied Learning, Storytelling, Transformative Dialogue and Brave Spaces. Curious?
