Join us this spring for our biggest learning event of the year, bringing together backbone leaders, practitioners, funders, partners, and more to explore how we can shape our collective future.

When the challenges we face feel overwhelming, coming together is more important than ever. 

The Collective Impact Forum, an initiative of the Aspen Institute Forum for Community Solutions and FSG, invites you to the annual Collective Impact Action Summit, taking place April 29–May 1, 2025.

Over three days, we'll gather to dream boldly, expand our vision and reimagine what is possible.  Together we'll explore how community collaboration rooted in equity and belonging is an essential ingredient in shaping a world where everyone thrives. 

You will leave inspired by the imagination and innovation of practitioners all over the world united towards collective action.
