Join us for our dialogue session to discuss the impact of these labels and how we can use our words for good!

Social Change for Climate Change
Can we really tackle climate change without social change?
While climate change is a pressing social issue, in Singapore (and perhaps the world), it still seems like an issue separate from the rest of society. But is it? What social changes do we need to see before we can unite society to care about climate change?
Come together with other like-minded social changemakers for an afternoon of ideation and experience sharing, as we draw the connections around what we as a society need to care about more and the relationship that links different social issues to climate change.

Naked Nights Presents: The Many Faces of Masculinity
The this event is the Many Faces of Masculinity. Our social and gender norms and expectations are changing, and both men and women are standing up for what they previously could not have, or who they could not be. For men, that means breaking free of the macho-driven stereotypes and embracing the ability to be vulnerable. What happens when men change the norm, socially and personally? What challenges do they face? What stories do they live to tell?
This topic will be explored through storytelling and conversation. We will be provoked to look at things in a new way by our storytellers, who will share their personal journeys and perspectives.
