EIDEIA Institute

A non-profit that brings a transformative approach to equity, fairness, and belonging efforts by integrating strength-based, social emotional competencies with personal and professional identity development to affect organizational and systems change.

Lasting change begins with equipping people with the tools to navigate challenges and foster genuine connections.

Our Name

Eideia means idea in Mirandese, an endangered language in Miranda do Douro, Portugal. The people who speak this language remain at the margins of the dominant culture. They desire to bring, as bell hooks said, the “margin to center.” So do we.

As an Institute, we research and test ideas. We love to learn and believe that there are many ways to generate knowledge.
