A modern village common where Elders and emerging leaders come together

A short course for emerging global leaders to act in service to a regenerative and flourishing future.
The Woven Way is a professional development experience designed to expose emerging global leaders to diverse approaches to creating change for our world’s pressing challenges. It draws from Indigenous, Eastern and Western approaches, weaving these together to set you up as a changemaker who is deeply grounded and self-confident.

Register your interest by the 2nd of May.
