Forums
Open Forum
A permanent, open space where women share master classes, lectures, webinars and short videos on sustainability, and learn from one another wherever they are.
Always open
Knowledge that keeps travelling
Our annual forums bring people together for a few days. The Open Forum keeps the conversation going all year round. Any woman working or studying in sustainability can share a master class, a lecture, a webinar, a short video, a case study or a conversation, and every talk stays available for others to watch and learn from.
Open all year
Submit your talk at any time. There are no deadlines and no registration fees.
Your voice, your expertise
Share research, practice, policy insights or lessons from your community, in English, Spanish or Portuguese.
Learning for everyone
Every published talk is free to watch, so women everywhere can learn from one another.
