Rotterdam Change Days 2025: At work in the Ruins

Programme

For Rotterdam Change Days 2025 we invite participants to engage in conversations that explore what it means to work humbly in the ruins of our times and to experiment with stopping to make sense according to the controlling logic of the world that is ending.

Below you find a provisional outline of the programme for the three days of our community conference.
