Wisdom and Action Forum

The Wisdom & Action Forum will push the boundaries of your thinking
Science tells us that the next five years are a critical inflection point for humanity. In August 2024, the Wisdom & Action Forum, Sensemaking and Systems Change, marked the first of our five-year response to this moment, bringing together world-leading thinkers from across disciplines and industries to address the challenges of our times.
Join us for our next Wisdom & Action Forum in 2026 as we explore: Equality & Democracy.
Join us for this intimate gathering of regenerative leaders, thinkers and practitioners from around the world
Express your interest below to attend our Wisdom and Action 2026, 'Equality & Democracy'.
We believe emergence grows from nurturing connection— this is our five-year commitment to addressing today’s challenges.

2024 - Sensemaking & Systems Change
Cities & Systems
Our built environment, systems and cities have a profound impact on the way we live. How do we create environments that enhance human wellbeing, minimise ecological footprints, and promote sustainable practices?

2025 - We Are Nature
Nature & Environment
In the face of the climate and biodiversity emergency, there is urgent need for action. How can we acknowledge the interconnectedness between human wellbeing and the health of our environment?

2026 - Equality & Democracy
Equality & Democracy
We live in a world marked by inequality and governance challenges. How can we shape a new future characterised by equality and healthy democracy for the benefit of future generations?

2027 - Self & Belonging
Self & Belonging
The journey towards positive change begins within ourselves and our local communities. How do we enable self-awareness and community connection as the foundation of our collective progress?

2028 - Business & Economics
Business & Economics
The era of prioritising profit over people and the environment must come to an end. How can businesses be a genuine force for good, contributing to societal wellbeing & environmental sustainability?

Our ticket price reflects the financial & love capital required to host an intimate and potent gathering. We have kept it as low as possible to ensure accessibility.
Our economic system is tearing at the fabric of society and our planet.
Wealth inequality, global unrest, climate change, artificial intelligence, an ageing demographic, biodiversity loss, and an epidemic of loneliness and mental health challenges are just some of the global and existential issues facing us at this moment.
Polarisation fuelled by a toxic media landscape and social media algorithms means we can't seem to discuss these issues, let alone agree on what to do about them. It's time to come together. To hold brave spaces for difficult conversations, to hold complexity and the shades of grey so we can chart new paths forward.
It's time for Wisdom and Action.

VIDEO RECAP
At the heart of everything we do, is the belief that collaboration is the key to transforming the world.
That's why we partner with organisations who are driven by a deep commitment to social and environmental change.
