"I enthusiastically endorse Inner Development Goals: Stories of Collective Leadership in Action, a transformative two-volume anthology. This collection offers invaluable insights and practices from global Inner Development Goals (IDGs) gatherings, highlighting the power of collective leadership in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The Caux IDG Forum, held in July 2024, exemplifies the integration of inner development and systemic change, showcasing practical approaches that strengthen networks and capacities essential for achieving the SDGs. The book and the forum connect by the depth of study with the richness of dialogue.
This collection is more than a book; it's a call to action. Accompanied by a digital workbook, it fosters dialogue between authors and readers, empowering collective action. Each chapter explores the multifaceted dimensions of systemic change through academic insights, case studies, and artistic expressions.
For anyone dedicated to the SDG movement, this collection is both a guide and an inspiration, underscoring the critical role of inner development in creating a sustainable and just world."
Ignacio Packer, Executive Director, Caux Initiatives of Change

The authors have brought together stories full of great insights and wisdom. It is an outstanding contribution to a holistic worldview that is urgently needed at this critical time."
