Session 1: Big picture thinking and doing
Welcome to ALT/work! It begins by posing the question - why an alternative? Uh, yeah. The world’s pretty messed up right now. Why is it this way? More importantly, it doesn’t have to be this way. We’ll begin this session by getting to know each other a bit - we’re better together, after all. We’ll have lots of space for Q&A, discussion, sharing, learning, connecting and maybe even some music.
What’s your superpower? We’re all human beings capable of doing amazing things if we follow our dreams and build up our skills. And maybe support one another in the process too. We’ll spend a few minutes getting to know one another.
Session 3: Life is a Dance, or Maybe a Waffle, or a Wriggle
What is life but energy dancing through matter? OK, super philosophical. But we’re connected with everything - all living beings. Dance, food, ethics - these things connect us, too. In this session, we’ll ponder these questions together a bit, then hear from our speakers.
Just, equitable, fair, abundant opportunities for everyone to thrive and live with dignity - that’s a pretty good start on how things should be. We know the world and our own species isn’t that - yet! So, what inspires us to get up off the couch and make our vision for a better world a reality? This huge question starts us off.
Session 5: A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step
Yes, but sometimes that step is into the vast unknown! How do you start something up, like where do you even begin? And what if you fail? FFS, these are important questions, right? We’ll share our thoughts and discuss a bit amongst ourselves, then hear some real-world stories. This session will inspire lots of questions about diving in and start up, so we’ll have lots of space for that, and getting connected with each other, too. ** We’re lining up a group of young entrepreneurs and a special guest. We’ll be announcing soon! The speaker joining us for this session is:
Every revolution worth having is a celebration, a fun celebration of life and living, a reLOVEution? In any case, we’re going to have music, death, food, and music, the key ingredients for a life lived in celebration - not necessarily in that order! This session will be one of our last chances to connect, speak our minds, ask questions, get connected with answers. But it won’t be the end . . . The speakers joining us for this session are:
ALT/overtime is an extra 30 minutes to carry on discussion, hear from additional presenters, ‘open mic’, networking, etc. Some sessions will be fizzy, emotional, heady, so this is a chance to let things go where they might need to go.
