Hello people, month our newsletter was stolen by a giant rabbit roaming the streets of Geneva. Standing in the office one morning before easter, the rabbit had confiscated our computers and said “yo guys, chill, it’s Easter, and you’ve been working real hard for actNOW!, go eat some chocolate and crack some [...]

    Besides “blood, sweat and tears”, planning actNOW! created an incredibly close team of around 20 euforia staff members, facilitators and volunteers. With a smile we can look back on two amazing events in Lausanne and Zürich. We have been able to convert over 100 participants into future CHANGEmakers. An amazing total of around [...]

    Approximately half a year after imp!act 2012, comeBACK! was the occasion for the former participants to gather together again and also to meet participants from previous years they didn’t know yet. The small group size in both Lausanne and Zurich allowed for an intensive exchange among participants, who got valuable insights and inputs [...]

    euforia had the honour to attend this year’s Skoll World Forum at Oxford University. Plenty of inspiration, top-notch advice and amazing contacts were gathered in Harry-Potter-like dining halls, over drinks at the many Pubs and during amazing discussions with the likes of Bunker Roy, Annie Lennox or Mohammad Yunus.
