Harvest 2024

Gathering Threads, Untangling Chaos, Weaving and Forming into a Tapestry of Hope.

As we gather together in times of uncertainty, it is remarkable how the threads of our lives intertwine, creating a rich tapestry of possibility. The complex, chaotic world we live in can seem daunting, but when we come together, we find the courage to untangle the knotted threads of our shared challenges and weave them into something beautiful.

The calling question that guided our four days together was:

How can practicing the "Art of Hosting" support us in creating thriving futures for all?

This led the organising student team to uncover two sub-questions related to the theme, which further guided our conversations and activities:

How can stepping into the "Art of Hosting" practice transform me and my ability to lead?
How can we weave our individual purposes and work into a collective life-affirming direction?

60 people from over 20 countries and various background gathered in Karlskrona for this year's Art of Hosting Training, diving deeper into these questions over the course of 4 days (11-14.06.2023).

We are glad to share the harvest from our journey with you.

Below you find a summary of each day, stories from participants, and a photo gallery.
