As impact grows exponentially worldwide, so, too, does the urgency of the problems we seek to solve. Those problems exist at a global scale and must be addressed in a global way. 

We are proud to introduce the global experts helping to shape the content at SOCAP24! This year's Content Curation Councils, made up of leaders from around the world, co-create each track alongside our content and production teams. We hope you’ll join us for SOCAP24 this October to be a part of the dialogue and our community of changemakers putting ideas into practice to catalyze systems change.

Meet the 2024 Content Curation Councils! 

Meet the incredibly passionate, experienced, and thought-provoking members of the SOCAP24 Content Curation Councils! This year marks the second time our content and production teams will be working alongside this global network to build the most engaging and valuable sessions within each track of our flagship convening.
