About this initiative
Elevate is an initiative to gather committed co-creators, facilitators, dreamers and changemakers in Stockholm to create the next iteration of participatory events.
Our ambition is to create a radically open, brave and inclusive communal space where we all experience a strong sense of belonging and psychological safety, in order to not only grow but shift as individuals. Because we believe that when we are in a state of full relaxation, connection and presence within ourselves, we open up and make room for ourselves to be both mind- and heart-blown. We make room for ourselves to shift and elevate our way of sense- and meaning-making in the world, which ultimately elevates our own wellbeing as well as the world around us.
This event is co-created and participatory which means that all participants are organizers and hosts (as well as caretakers of the island), and only the structure and preparation of the gathering (and not the content) is made by a small core of initiators. This is an experience that we all create for each other. All activities, cooking and cleaning are self-organized. We start with an individual workweek with evening activities, followed by a full-time retreat over the weekend.
This is an experimental event initiated by the self-organized community K9 Co-living together with Ekskäret Foundation with the aim to unite purpose-driven communities and people in Stockholm on the beautiful island of Ekskäret.
