KEYNOTES & TALKS | PODCASTS & BROADCAST | COMMENTARY & LEADERSHIP

Sharing the story of regenerative futures is as important as helping to create them. In times of volatile turbulence and change, it’s important to continue to share hope for the future, honest and transparent experiences of what it’s really like to be involved in leading place-based community led transformative change, and interactive experiences that build learning and practice.

Jenny Andersson is an inspiring, informative, provocative speaker who generates opportunities for thoughtful inquiry, intimate relationality and connection in a room, and whose keynotes set the tone for conferences, gatherings and inquiries.

Below are upcoming, present and past keynotes, talks, panel appearances, intimate dialogues, commentary pieces, podcast appearances, contributions to books and publications that all aim to help build the field of regenerative place-based practice.
