Our History

Carrie Fox launched Mission Forward® in 2014 as a speaker series, originally designed to drive deeper conversations among innovative thinkers, makers, and doers in social change. In 2020, we re-imagined the in-person series as a podcast, and added community conversations, resources and tools to help our growing community navigate through changing and challenging times.

Today, Mission Forward serves as an open community of practice for change makers and change seekers around the globe.
