YOUR LOCAL RIPPLE EFFECT
Wisdom Talks are all around the world to bring local communities together and initiate transformation. We invite one or more speakers to open dialogues around highly relevant topics of our time.
Wisdom Talks are local gatherings where inspiring speakers present ideas, activities and projects, and thought-provoking conversations and meaningful experiences are happening. Change needs space initiated through inspiring encounters which are open, free and curious. By organizing a Wisdom Talk, you can create a unique gathering in your community that will unleash new ideas, inspire and inform to support and initiate transformation towards consciousness and wisdom.
