Today our very survival depends on our ability to stay awake, to adjust to new ideas, to remain vigilant and to face the challenge of change. – Martin Luther King, Jr.
We live in a rapidly changing world. Travel, technology, and economics are uniting us in ways we could not have imagined just a short time ago. Advances in science and engineering are providing unheralded possibilities for problem solving and discovery. Major cultural and political shifts are transforming the global landscape overnight leading to unrest at home and abroad.
In response to these challenges the North Dakota Humanities Council created the GameChanger Series, an annual ideas festival focused on a major event or issue significantly changing the face of our world. We invite people close to the action to share their ideas for managing these changes in ways that will lead to a better, more prosperous world. Our hope is to create a culture of curiosity and collective inquiry around the ideas that will lead us into tomorrow. Our goal is to equip emerging leaders and everyday citizens with a better understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing us in the 21st century and the creative solutions we need to address them. We invite you to join your neighbors and community leaders as we embark on this learning journey together. |
