The Action Lab brings together organizations and leaders across disciplines to build stronger, more creative, and impactful social justice movements. Through its work in learning and leadership, organizing and policy, and arts and culture, The Action Lab creates opportunities for people and organizations working toward social change to learn, connect, and strengthen their work.

Cardea is an Anchor Partner of The Action Lab, joining a community of organizations committed to building strong, sustainable movements and supporting the people who make that work possible.

As part of this partnership, Cardea facilitates retreats with The Action Lab’s staff. These gatherings offer a different rhythm from the organization’s everyday work, bringing staff together through conversation, ceremony, shared experiences, and time spent as a community. Our work together centers the relationships and culture that make The Action Lab’s broader work possible.
