Join Our #SOCIALSTORM
​Before Lift Off

Everything that seemed impossible began with an idea... a mission. Missions took us to the moon, eradicated smallpox, and ended racial segregation in public spaces. While the world is practicing social distancing, think about what your mission will be when COVID-19 is over. For example, how can we make education more equitable, housing more affordable, or the environment more sustainable? ​We must go the distance--together--to make a difference in society. We need your ideas. We need your creative solutions. We need you.

​Before Global Launchpad, we are challenging everyone around the world to share or sing ideas for bringing about change on social media and to challenge others to do the same. We are inviting you to rewrite the narrative and co-create a new vision for our communities and the world at large. We call this co-creation, or brainstorming via social media, our “social storm.” While we social distance, let's #socialstorm to #gothedistance. Join us by sharing your ideas and challenging others before April 15.

On April 15-17, 2020, we are convening changemakers from around the world to discuss ideas for improving society after COVID-19, develop skills to turn those ideas into action, and de-stress during this pandemic.

​​Whether you already have an idea for creating change, want to help your community
but have no idea where to start, or just need to de-stress during COVID-19, this conference is for you. Global Launchpad will help you de-stress and provide you with tools and skills to help you make a difference. Register now to secure your spot for lift off.

Learn and Do
20 changemakers will share their ideas for going the distance in panel discussions and teach you how to create and sustain change in skills workshops. Each day, you will also be able to meet some of the speakers and participate in a speed-networking session where you can meet other participants. We know you are busy, so you can attend as many or as few sessions as you like.

De-Stress
Those who work hard must health hard too. This is a stressful time for everybody, and we want you to relax. Each day at 6:00 PM-7:00 PM, we will have "Healthy Hour," where you can participate in FREE, family-friendly activities to help you de-stress, including exercise classes and comedy. We encourage you to tune in and, if you have children, bring them too!

​Altogether, you will have the opportunity to hear from 20 speakers and engage with other changemakers in more than 20 hours of learning, doing, and de-stressing, helping you lift off, take flight, and #gothedistance in 2020. ​Register and let's fly—together.
