Access
GULL is a deliberately practical approach fostering and recognizing self-directed development toward a graduation into increased self-reliance, financial stability, and community leadership.
We focus on “action learning” which can be used by anyone, anywhere, and in any community, workplace, or educational setting. When linked to a professional recognition and certification program, it encourages participants to move forward by releasing the potential in people to bring about positive change together.
Expand what you deem possible for yourself and your community.
Develop
Combined with local, mentored accountability, GULL has been powerful enough to transform the lives of thousands of people and hundreds of communities worldwide. GULL does not provide a set curriculum, but instead creates small groups of learners that grow together while solving locally identified problems.
For almost 20 years, GULL has supported the work of national and international development agencies, providing its action learning and professional certification system in support of self-directed change and community-led development.
With this approach we have transformed thousands of lives and enabled you to make a difference in our world.
“The staggering numbers of people who miss out on formal development tend to know even less about what they are capable of accomplishing.”
