WHY GATHER?
As humanity faces a metacrisis we are on the verge of a great transformation.
How can we shape this transformation, and how can we contribute to it’s progress?
In this dynamic time of transition to create thriving businesses and an economy that works for the good of people and the planet we need to connect across silos, linking inner development with organisational development, with new technology and new financial models. We need to heal the story of separation, reconnecting philosophy, spirituality, art, science, business and community.
The purpose of the Gathering of Tribes is to create connection-for-action across silos, energising collaboration and growth of the regenerative movement.
Sparking emergence and co-creation, a new gathering for a new era.

location
The Gathering of Tribes 2024 will take place in a a private 22 acre-forest estate close to Ponte Lima, 40min north from Porto airport, offering easy access and an immersive experience into nature.
Will be available on-site: Wi-Fi, parking, community kitchens, showers and bathrooms, access to drinking water, electricity, indoors spaces, campsite, glamping (at extra cost), a lake to swim in, a forest to walk through and much to explore.
Why in nature?
Reinventing our relationship to the earth is key to regeneration. Meeting in nature makes it much easier to do this. There are many practical reasons why the forest is best suited for a regenerative gathering.
The outdoors is full of open spaces inviting spontaneous interaction. Not limited to rooms and lines of buildings, conversation can flow, and spontaneous dialogue circles emerge.
In nature we feel connected to our core nature, we are calmer and more creative, it is only from this mind space that the regenerative culture flows.
We invite this forest to host the gathering, ask it to inspire, guide and regenerate us.
