Sparking Ideas, Igniting Action

At our 2026 event, we invite thought leaders, creatives, and changemakers to join us for the Malvern Festival of Ideas on Social Change. This is an opportunity to share insights, challenge perspectives, and inspire action in a setting designed for meaningful exchange. Whether through the lens of activism, literature, technology, or community building, your voice can drive progress. Join us in shaping the conversations that will define the future. We hope to explore examples, factors, and causes and to address questions like: How can we ensure equal opportunities and rights for all, regardless of gender, race, or socioeconomic status? How do advancements in AI and automation affect jobs, privacy, and societal structures? How can we bridge the gap between wealthier and poorer nations, especially in access to education, healthcare, and resources? Who benefits from the Culture War?
