5th annual global sociocracy conference!

SoFA Zoom (Multi-Room)

The 2022 annual conference is for you – and everyone else who is enthusiastic about governance that lifts up all voices. We will bring together people from different sectors – business, nonprofit, cooperatives, education, activists – to share and connect with each other.
This year’s multilingual conference will go beyond presentations. It will be more like a festival, with talks, micro-trainings, panels, participatory activities, and conversations.
