2022 Conference: “Bridging Connections: Learning from the Past, Investing in the Future”
In 2022, we drew on connections between past, present and future. We inherit the systems and legacies of the past, for better or worse. We refer to past conditions and reference points as we look to the future we want to see. What do we maintain, what can we build from, and what do we have to “fix”?
2021 Conference: “Together Like Never Before”
The 2021 conference theme, “Together Like Never Before,” was a celebration of the opportunity to physically re-convene, bringing all that we had learned through our shared experiences weathering a pandemic and significant political upheaval. It allowed us to take a look at what could be possible as we re-shape our thinking and our approaches to working together, with new voices at the table, in the time ahead.
