Episode Description
What is the World Ethic Forum? Five years in, we still stumble on the question. But we know much of what it isn’t: not a project, not an attempt to fix one problem or offer one solution for one sector, in one region. So what are we? In this bonus episode, recorded after our 2026 gathering in Kenya, we reach for a metaphor that seems to fit: a sourdough mother. Something where the purpose is not to grow larger, because the whole point is to give it away, one piece at a time, so that others can use it to bake their own bread. We speak about what it means to be the starter rather than the loaf, and to metabolise the world together. A bonus conversation with World Ethic Forum co-leads Luea Ritter and Anaïs Sägesser.
