Join us for an enlightening event as we welcome Dr. Elizabeth Sawin, Founder and Director of the Multisolving Institute, to discuss her new book, Multisolving: Creating Systems Change in a Fractured World.

In this compelling work, Dr. Sawin explores the concept of "multisolving," a transformative approach that addresses interconnected global challenges—like climate change, health inequities, and economic disparities—through coordinated, collective action. Drawing from her decades-long career in climate activism and systems thinking, Dr. Sawin offers insights into how individuals, organizations, and communities can work together to tackle multiple crises simultaneously, creating solutions that foster equity, sustainability, and resilience.

The event will be introduced by MIT Sloan Professor John Sterman, a renowned expert in system dynamics and sustainability. Don’t miss this opportunity to engage with Dr. Sawin as she shares practical strategies and examples of multisolving in action, illustrating how the world’s most complex issues can be addressed more effectively by breaking down silos and building solidarity.

We will be raffling several copies of Dr. Sawin's book to in-person attendees.
