Fellow & Workshop Facilitator

The Just Economy Institute (JEI) cultivates a growing movement of financial activists — impact investors, philanthropists, financial advisors, and community organizers — committed to shifting the flow of capital and power in service of people and planet.

Through its nine-month fellowship and ongoing alumni network, JEI supports leaders who are redesigning financial systems to advance justice, ecological regeneration, and shared prosperity.

Since 2021, Kiley Arroyo has been a JEI Fellow and workshop facilitator, exploring how a soil-keeping ethos can inform social investment strategy.

Within this context, she examines how regenerative principles — long embedded in ecological and cultural traditions — might reshape the design and deployment of capital. Rather than treating investment as extraction or short-term return, this inquiry asks:

How can capital cultivate the relational and structural conditions that allow communities to flourish over time?

Her work within JEI connects cultural intelligence, adaptive capital strategy, and ecosystem stewardship — advancing approaches to social finance that align inner intention, relational accountability, and structural transformation.

This engagement reflects CSC’s broader commitment to redesigning financial systems so they support long-term vitality rather than short-term gain.
