Come think with us.
Every season, Flourish hosts a gathering in Toronto: talks by senior social purpose leaders, a sustainably sourced meal, structured thought work, and a room full of people worth knowing. Come for the ideas. Stay for the people.
Breaking Pathways at Unity Charity, Toronto: a panel Dr. Bas led, and the discussion that followed.
Good rooms, on purpose.
Some of the best thinking happens in rooms where nobody is selling anything. That is what a convening is: an evening or an afternoon built around people worth hearing and a question worth sitting with, in the company of people building things that matter.
Each one has the same bones. Talks by senior social purpose leaders. A meal, sustainably sourced, because how we feed a room says what we believe. Structured thought work, so the ideas do not evaporate on contact with the parking lot. And real time to meet the other humans at the table.
Who speaks at these
The people we convene are the real thing: executive directors, researchers, artists, builders. Many have worked with Flourish over the years, and all of them are doing what resourced, grounded leaders do: remarkable things. We give them the room and the spotlight. You get the benefit of both.

Hear about the next one first.
