Change begins with how we relate.
At Upstand, we are putting human connection at the center of systemic change.
We partner with organizations committed to driving societal change, through equity-based and locally rooted development. Our approach is grounded in collective wisdom and deep relational practice that challenge outdated paradigms to advance decolonization, well-being and justice.
We collaborate across sectors and disciplines to achieve climate and development responses.
By honoring local knowledge and embracing multiple ways of knowing and being, we ensure our work stays relevant and flexible to those we serve. Our approach centers on inclusive research, relational methods, and shared dialogue.
We are guided by our values to disrupt boundaries and reimagine relationships.
We understand that change demands comprehensive and disruptive approaches to address the root causes of complex problems. We rely on fairness, inclusivity, and accountability to restore our human and non-human interdependency.
Let’s Create Change Together.
We’re ready to help you drive meaningful transformation.
