EBFP Forum: Can you afford to dream?

Are dreams worth pursuing? With the "great resignation" and an oversaturated attention economy, most of us find ourselves straddling more than one role or job. How many of us can afford to dream?

Hear from our EBFP winner and finalists who hail from different backgrounds and professions about how they (and the diverse protagonists of their stories) chart pathways to best manage dreams and the shifting demands of reality.

Conversations with Purpose: On Race

Race in Singapore is a boundary that is both personal yet public, visible yet hidden, abstract yet real, evolving yet historically deep.

This workshop is an initiative rooted in Common Purpose’s research and commitment to developing leaders who can cross boundaries, but entirely shaped and driven by the unique Singaporean context.

Participants will then create groups and be guided by mentors to lead their own Conversation With Purpose with a chosen community by January 2023.

The Enabling Festival 2022

The COVID-19 pandemic has created worlds of isolation, particularly for caregivers and persons living with dementia. The lack of physical interaction has reminded us of the importance to stay in touch.

This festival brings a carefully curated series of thought-provoking and engaging programmes, to showcase the experiences of persons living with dementia and their caregivers. A single touch can help reduce anxiety and make us feel secure, psychologically safe and less alone. It can even reduce pain and the feeling of social exclusion.
