“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
— Martin Luther King Jr., from “Strength to Love” (1963)
The world is grappling with the effects of environmental degradation, systemic violence, and growing inequalities, while traditional leadership models —often hierarchical and short-term in focus— struggle to address these multifaceted issues.
Amid this backdrop, there is an urgent need for a new generation of leaders who can navigate complexity with compassion, vision, and a commitment to sustainable and transformative practices.
A new generation of leaders is needed and THIS IS WHY WE NEED YOU!
