F Njahîra Wangarî - Book Chapter

Abstract
"This chapter blends African oral and written narratives, lived experiences with a genetic chronic disability and a Roman Catholic upbringing. These will be interrogated to illustrate the role of alternative explanations in influencing advocacy and activism for the lives, wellbeing, dignity and inclusion of persons with disabilities. Particularly, this chapter is an exploration of self-identity and how persons with disabilities are conditioned to view ourselves in specific ways while highlighting alternative perceptions available is presented by the author. It engages the works of several African and African-descendent authors who feature persons with disabilities as characters in their books and relies on narrative prosthesis as the basis for this engagement."

Event Description

When it comes to doing the work of systems change, many organizations find that shifting mental models—mindsets and deeply held beliefs that influence how we think, what we do, and how we talk—within their stakeholders is one of the most challenging yet critical components to activate real and lasting change.

What does it mean to “shift” mental models? Where would one start, and how does one overcome the many challenges that aim to keep historical mental models in place?

Following up on the earlier webinar The Six Conditions of Systems Change, join a discussion on June 17 with FSG and New Profit as we take a deeper dive into one of those specific conditions—how to promote and encourage mindset shifts within your stakeholders and communities. We’ll hear stories from the field from the national civic organization PushBlack and community-focused efforts from the Hogg Foundation as well as a primer on mental models from the Frameworks Institute.

If you’ve ever wondered about how to tackle one of the most difficult components of systems change, register for this learning discussion.
