All Power To The Developing

All Power To The Developing A podcast of social development and justice.

Activists, educators, therapists and artists from all over the world share the challenges and triumphs of creating conditions where “All Power to the Developing” is becoming a reality. A podcast of the East Side Institute, an international center for social change efforts that reinitiate human and community development. We support, connect and partner with committed and creative activists, scholars, artists, helpers and healers all over the world. In 2003, Institute co-founders Lois Holzman and the late Fred Newman had a paper published with the title “All Power to the Developing.” This phrase captures how vital it is for all people—no matter their age, circumstance, status, race, ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation—to grow, develop and transform emotionally, socially and intellectually if we are to have a shot at creating something positive out of the intense crises we’re all experiencing. We hope that this podcast series will show you that, far more than a slogan, “all power to the developing” is a loving activity, a pulsing heart in an all too cruel world

Happy New Year, and Thank You.

As we step into 2026, we want to pause and send our deepest gratitude to every single person who listened, shared, commented, and helped lift up the All Power To The Developing Podcast throughout 2025.

Because of you, our conversations traveled farther than ever before, reaching listeners in 41 countries across the world. That means voices, stories, and ideas from our communities are resonating globally, crossing borders, languages, and lived experiences.

This podcast was created to give space to people whose voices are too often overlooked, to hold conversations that challenge, inspire, and humanize, and to document the work, creativity, struggle, joy, and courage of people building something new together.

We are proudly independent.
That independence allows us to stay honest, grounded, and community-centered, and it is only possible because of your support. Every listen, every share, every word of encouragement genuinely matters.

We also want to extend a heartfelt thank-you to all of our incredible 2025 guests. Your openness, your stories, and your leadership helped shape something powerful. We are honored you trusted us with your voices.

And now we look ahead.

2026 is going to be BIG.
More conversations. More countries. More collaboration. More voices that deserve to be heard.

Thank you for being on this journey with us.
Thank you for believing in this podcast.
Thank you for helping build a world where more people everywhere get to speak, create, and develop.

With gratitude and excitement,
