The world you want is
closer than
you think.
Closer Than You Think is a space for possibilities. We are a hybrid ideas studio and consultancy collective working at the intersection of activism, philanthropy and art. Guided by principles of feminism, friendship and care, our work here seeks to understand, engage with and transform the world we live in.
We shape change in three areas:
Nourish collective feminist leadership and practice
Catalyse cultural production and popular education
Cultivate and curate resource flows and communities
We work with our collaborators in three ways:
studios
In the arts, studios act as generative spaces where creators can realise a shared vision. Our multidisciplinary studios are no different. We work with others to bring beauty, joy and creativity to the practice of transformation.
Transitions
Co-Leadership
Remember Who Made Them
advising
We are nurturing a community that believes in the possibilities and power that come from genuine partnership.
At the delta
A delta is a place where one singular body of water branches into streams, nourishing fertile ground before coming together again at the mouth of the ocean. In the same way, we work with you to navigate your circumstances and challenges with creativity, clarity and common purpose.
Under the moonbow
A moonbow is a rare place of colour and light amid darkness. In this stream of work, we partner with people to co-design wealth redistribution, connecting you to the social justice movements building a world worthy of its promise.
chrysalis
A chrysalis is nature’s incubator, offering a place of security for young beings as they prepare for first flight. Closer Than You Think can provide a fiscal or structural home for your emergent ideas or projects until they are ready to become independent.
