The Heart of Change

PUBLIC EVENT 2024

The multi-day public event of the World Ethic Forum held at Rondo Congress Center, Pontresina (CH) in August 2024.

Pathways to an ethic of radically shared aliveness

We are engaged in the search for the heart of change. This requires openness, a willingness to say goodbye to entrenched solution models and a departure into the unknown towards experiences and events that take us by surprise.

The Heart of Change was a festival of workshops, concerts, cinema, performances and outdoor experiences. An invitation to awe and wonder and a celebration of radically shared aliveness.

It is one thing to talk about ethics and the heart of change, but how do we live what we see as our calling?

Here is a brief retrospective of the event:

Workshops

The workshop program was composed as a bouquet of diverse invitations, explorations and reflections on core aspects and important perspectives when we talk about the heart of change.

The World Ethic Forum wants to offer a convergence space, preconditions and fertile ground for being in active exploration, embodied practices and dialogue that are inspired by deep listening, connecting unlikely dots, and being in mutual learning together.

They are inspired by art, social and embodied practices that all aim at nurturing and invigorating relationships with more than the habitable ways and the more than human realms.
