Emerge Ukraine Pilgrimage
Kyiv 26-29 September 2024
Join us on a Journey to
the Future's
Frontier
Join the Emerge for Ukraine Fundraiser on June 16th @ Location
Ukraine is the lens through which we can see the future
Emerge Ukraine's New Thinking School invite you on a pilgrimage to Kyiv to explore and imagine the world that's emerging.
How to participate in shaping desired futures? Answering that question in the context of war and increasing uncertainty, means this will be our most ambitious gathering yet.
To sense into what is emerging asks for a pilgrimage to the future's frontier. Ukraine is that frontier - the site of courage, societal resilience and adaptation.
Support Ukraine,
learn from Ukrainians
The Fundraiser ‘An Explosion of Trust” is a day of conversation, reflections, poetry, making connections and brainstorming ideas. And of course, you’ll hear from Ukrainians who are affected by the war and are involved in defending and imagining the future of their country and its open society.
Our partners
Four days in Kyiv form the heart of the pilgrimage, where we'll explore the world that is emerging in areas as education, security, spirituality, democracy and cultural development.
This journey to and through Kyiv asks for courage, dedication and heart, taking us to places shaped by history and the current war.
We’re calling it a pilgrimage for a good reason - whoever completes it won't be the same as the one who begins it.

Emerge in Ukraine
Exactly five years ago, 2019 saw our second Emerge Gathering, held in Kyiv. The decision to go there followed developments after the 2014 revolution; the emergence of a vibrant civil society in Ukraine, and in support of democratic norms and their incipient Bildung movement.
Emerge is historically and socially tied to the fate of the Ukrainian people. Since the early days of the war, we have kept weekly online meetings with Ukrainians and our extended networks. This pilgrimage is a chance for the network to deepen its ties to each other and learn lessons that are relevant to a future we all share.
Emerge Founder Tomas Bjorkman with members of the New Thinking School and Bildung movement in Kyiv, 2019
