​about us

We host monthly dialogues with different actors to surface and unpack experiences of the current socioeconomic and
political climate and the ways in which identity interacts with these. Through a facilitative approach we aim to brainstorm together with any group of individuals the strategies for a more inclusive and dynamic society

We also frequently produce thought leadership in multiple forms of media, that highlight these dynamics and provide strategies and support for leaders working in the midst of these fault lines.
