Transformational Leadership in Action
The Swiss IDG Forum 2024, the first of its kind, is a place for organisations and individuals across sectors and generations in Switzerland to learn about the IDGs and how to apply them effectively, and to network for action towards a more sustainable future. It is hosted by Swiss IDG Hub, country partner of IDG global, in cooperation with multiple partners from Switzerland. Leaders are in the driver’s seat. The forum’s focus therefore is on transformational leadership.

- Main space (auditorium) & side (or satellite) spaces for parallel workshops/sessions

IDG Learning Lab
Building on the IDG framework, our interactive, experiential and action-oriented IDG Learning Lab is designed for individual and collective learning and development towards greater inner and outer sustainability. This includes a prototyping process around existing or new SDG-related projects of the participants where the learnings are applied. As part of the program, participants are invited to establish an individual ‘inner’ practice routine with the exercises provided.
Impact of the program
Participants will be able to better:
- Build and sustain self-awareness through integrated mindfulness & strengths practice
- Cultivate understanding through deep listening and conscious speaking practices
- Gain new perspectives for their challenges by deep connection and sharing with the other change-makers in the program
- Innovate from a place of deeper connection with themselves, stakeholders & life
- Collaborate in co-creative and impactful ways through systemic thinking and teaming
- Drive change more consciously and sustainably, applying and sharing IDG tools and Learning Lab insights
