Spring brings renewal—and the courage to ask big, honest questions. In this final Study–Action Circle of 2026, we explore Vanessa de Oliveira Andreotti’s Hospicing Modernity, guided by the principles of The Work That Reconnects.

Hosted by the NENA Systems Change Hub, and supported by the School of Social Impact and the Humanitarian Changemakers Network, this is a space for people committed to shifting deep systems and building the foundations of a new economy grounded in care, justice and regeneration.

We approach the text as a community: reflective, curious and willing to sit with complexity together.

What’s Inside

Thought-provoking dialogue about responsibility, power and systemic transition
Exercises that help us navigate uncertainty with humility and groundedness
Time to share insights, challenges and hopes with fellow changemakers 🔄
A cooperative learning space where no one has to hold the work alone

🗓 What to Expect from the Study-Action Circles

The Work That Reconnects (WTR) offers practical tools and reflective practices to help those working to transform our economic systems navigate complexity, build resilience, and sustain collective action. By combining deep reflection, experiential exercises, and group dialogue, WTR supports changemakers in facing ecological, social, and economic crises with clarity, courage, and connection—enhancing their ability to envision and co-create a more regenerative, equitable, and wellbeing-centred economy.
