The Inner Development Goals

The Global Goals were created as a roadmap to a sustainable future. We are now creating the Inner Development Goals – a well researched blueprint of the capabilities, qualities and skills that represents the adult development needed in society in order for us collectively manifest the understanding and will necessary to reach the SDGs.

The skills needed today are not given to us at birth; they arise from experience. We often think of it as wisdom, but individual experiences are not enough to solve the complex problems we face today. This is why we must learn from the very best collective problem-solving experiences, and promote skills that encourage new perspectives, support personal growth, and focus on our purpose in life.

The Inner Development Goals effort is both a communications project popularising the understating of the need for adult development in society, and a research project into the clusters of Transformative Skills ‘IDGs’ that can approximate the necessary adult development.
