💭 How can social imagination help us find hope and move into action?
Centre for Public Impact
We're a learning partner for governments, public servants & the changemakers leading the charge to reimagine government.
Hello,
We know the world feels heavy right now. With complex and compounding crises, finding hope and possibility is both more difficult and more necessary than ever. We need to find ways to move beyond piecemeal reform and create space to imagine together how things could be radically different and better. That’s why the Centre for Public Impact and our friends at ThirdStory are hosting an online conversation series on Social Imagination: a powerful way to rethink how we create change in the public and social sectors.
Our first 90-minute session is coming up on Thursday, June 5th, 4:30-6 PM AEST.
In this first event of our three-part speaker series, our hosts, CPI’s Alli Edwards and Perrie Ballantyne from ThirdStory, will be joined by special guests:
Join us to explore Social Imagination in action — and why it’s vital for the public sector today.
