An invitation to come together in shared practice and action to explore how to meet this moment and show up for the future that we all deserve.
Confronting systems of oppression together.
Confronting systems of oppression together.
The lessons of our interdependence are coming at us fast and furiously. As we navigate a wounded past and an uncertain future, we will need the depth of our courage and the breadth of our collective. "Practicing Change, Shaping Futures” is a collective gathering of shared practice and action to explore how to meet this moment and show up for the future that we all deserve.
CTZN SUMMIT is bringing together those of us who think we can and need to do better for ourselves, our communities and our society. It is a place for us to gather in practice, build political muscle and harness our collective power to confront systems of oppression and create more possibilities for a future of wellbeing that works for everyone.
Co-Creating futures we all deserve.

Pay what you can: This is for people who are struggling due to systemic oppression. No one will be turned away.
Pay it forward: $350 (If you have resources, please consider sponsoring someone else)
*For this summit to be accessible to everyone, we’ve structured it to be self determined. Please consider your social location (your proximity to power, privilege, and resources) in determining how much you are able to contribute so that we can collectively move towards equity.
