Community Leaders Unconference

Meet. Share. Learn. Collaborate.

3 Days • 2 Nights | Vaksana Farms

A residential unconference for people who build, lead and strengthen communities.

Community building is rarely a straight road. Behind every thriving community are stories of experimentation, challenges, failures, unexpected breakthroughs and people who chose to keep going.

The Community Leaders Unconference brings these people together at Vaksana Farms for two days of meaningful conversations, shared experiences and new connections.

What Is an Unconference?

Unlike a traditional conference, there is no rigid speaker-audience format.

Participants are encouraged to bring their own ideas, questions, experiences and conversations to the gathering.

Expect:

  • Community leader stories and profiles
  • Open-space discussions
  • Participant-led conversations
  • “The Mistakes We Made” sessions
  • Peer learning and problem-solving
  • Networking and collaboration
  • Farm experiences
  • Bonfire and informal conversations

Two Days of Conversations. Three Nights Together.

The residential format gives participants more than scheduled sessions.

There is time to connect over meals, take a walk through the farm, continue conversations around the bonfire and meet people beyond their usual circles.

Sometimes the most meaningful idea starts with an unexpected conversation.

Who Should Join?

This gathering is for people who are actively building or supporting communities:
  • Community leaders
  • Social entrepreneurs
  • Grassroots changemakers
  • NGO and nonprofit leaders
  • Community founders
  • Creators and network builders
  • Sustainability and social-impact practitioners
  • Anyone bringing people together around a shared purpose

You don’t need a large organisation or a big following.

If you are building something that brings people together, there is a place for you here.

Meet the People Behind the Communities

As part of the initiative, we will feature community leaders through our Community Leaders Profiling Series.

The series goes beyond highlighting achievements. We explore the person and the journey behind the community.

  • How did they begin?
  • What challenges did they face?
  • What mistakes did they make?
  • What did they learn?
  • What would they do differently today?

Real stories. Honest lessons. Meaningful conversations.

Why Vaksana Farms?
