Living Future 09 Program
"The task of leadership is not to put greatness into people, but to elicit it, for the greatness is there already." - John Buchan, author
What is an "unconference" you ask?
Living Future provides a different way of viewing our built environment – a way that requires new tools, new perspectives and better collaboration. We will bring experts to the fore to share their experience and knowledge. Yet this will not be another conference of "talking heads". To create truly sustainable communities, we all have to be actively involved in finding the solutions - and that means YOU!
We are currently crafting the program for Living Future 09, which will include interactive educational sessions and lively discussions, as before, but will also include more experiential learning opportunities.
Attending Living Future 09 will surely empower and enable you to help shift global consciousness towards the change we all wish to see in the world.
“A community is like a ship; everyone ought to be prepared to take the helm.”
- Henrik Ibsen, playwright
