For three years Tamkeen Community Foundation for Human Development and the European School of Governance engaged in a research partnership pursuing what emerged as a socio-systemic complexity evaluation of Tamkeen’s development approach and practice. It had been a more than fruitful learning journey full of surprise for both sides. It brought coherence, resonance, and clarity. It dissolved the “magic” as well as it enchanted the research. It moved from evaluation to appreciation. In the end, we learnt that metamorphic transformation growing from shared understanding surpasses by far what could be described in the prevalent language of change management, leverage, and impact.

Your questions
become Our Questions

Our partners come with their questions and they meet ours. We live the questions as we coreflect the experiences that worded them. We delight in witnessing how, in the co-exploration of their in-between new questions emerge. They manifest the growth of our shared understanding, the shift of our focus of attention, the language we are cocreating, the dilatation of our perception, the expansion of our gaze, and the transformation of how we do what we do.

We invite your questions and welcome you to experience together, a co-created, co-reflected, co-facilitated process of inquiry, learning and understanding, trusting our human potential, trusting our humanity, realizing the existentiality of love.

What has happened?
The houses are the same, the
streets are the same, the
people are the same. Nothing
has changed and everything
has changed. Our relationships
have changed. Violence used to
bring us together, now it is
love.
