In conversation with Ed Gillespie: How to face collapse without collapsing

DateTimeGMTOnline

Join us for a conversation with serial entrepreneur, futurist and self-styled "insultant", Ed Gillespie. Co-founder of award-winning sustainable development agency, Futerra, a lead facilitator with the Forward Institute, and Chief Futurist at the Global Destination Sustainability Movement, Ed is renowned for his direct, funny and unflinchingly honest exposition of the "metacrisis" facing humanity.

Maybe you didn’t even appreciate that we are in metacrisis – that the compound and cascading risks of climate change, nature loss and social inequality represent an existential threat to civilisation as we know it. Or maybe you were aware of the risks, but not the scale of their impacts, including that 50% of global GDP could be destroyed by as early as 2070 if we continue our present course.

Either way, Ed's insights promise to be revelatory, not only illuminating where we are, how we got here, and possible pathways out of our predicament, but also how the law can act as a critical lever for systemic change.

The Mishcon Academy offers outstanding legal, leadership and skills development for legal professionals, business leaders and individuals. Our learning experts create industry leading experiences that create long-lasting change delivered through live events, courses and bespoke learning.
