In these times of polarisation and complexity our usual ways of operating appear inadequate and our established systems can feel unfit for purpose, under strain or close to collapse.  In the face of multiple interconnected issues ( personal, local, national and global ) we need to learn how to navigate the uncertainty and create new futures together. This requires each of us to participate and be in conversation to discover new responses.  We need to explore and practice fresh approaches to being together, listening to one another and collective sense making so that we can work with the needs of the present and call in the potential of positive futures

How might we cultivate the confidence and capacity we need in ourselves and each other to respond with generative dialogue, curiosity and wise action?
