We believe that reflection and openness lead to better gathering of knowledge. Here we share our thoughts and reflections from the events and occasions we have visited or arranged.

Something happens when people meet. During the actual interaction. New trains of thought are tested, ideas are advanced and ingrained beliefs have to take a back seat. That is why we are arranging a series of small and large meetings where we can listen to others, to each other and share experiences. Some of these we are staging ourselves, some we are visiting and participating in, and some we are opening up and allowing anyone to become involved who so desires. Here you can see what is in progress.

An exciting and educational meeting can turn up when you least expect it, but the events that are presented below will not happen again, at least not in the same format in the same place and at the same time. Here we present the meetings and the experiences that have taken place.
