YVWF July 2021

RESILIENCE - WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR?

This year’s program will champion resilience. Conversation by conversation we will all dissect what society thinks it is, what we believe it to be and how it shows up in both daily life and global acts.

Together we’ll see how true resilience can often sit in the small repeated acts of survival, as well as the enormously impressive ‘against-all-odds’ stories. We’ll talk about cultural, personal, financial, creative, environmental and community resilience - together we’ll leave feeling inspired, humbled, joyful - and maybe even ever-so-slightly changed.
