Panel session: Can you rebuild the house whilst living in it?
We face enormous, urgent, global challenges which will require radical changes to many of our current systems. But can we really change those systems, whilst simultaneously working within them?
Join us and collaborators to discuss, and hear first hand stories from people who are quietly but urgently seeking to radically rewire systems and redefine the rules, whilst still having to operate within them.

Annette Dhami

Annette spent a decade building civic and social initiatives across the UK, exploring how we organise, finance, occupy space, build networks and create economies for shared and public benefit. Experiencing the thick tar of the systems that this work moved within (inc economic, land, governance and financial systems), Annette joined Dark Matter Labs in 2020 to focus more deeply on how we can shift this 'dark matter' to transition towards a thriving, balanced, civic economy.
