Human-first learning, live and in community
Learn with the people building what’s next.
Small-group courses with scholars, artists and organizers. Make sense of this moment, and find your people while you do it.
Winter courses open November 16
Nearly half of us feel lonely, and the places we used to learn and gather aren’t meeting the moment.
The School is where we make sense of it together. A place where you’re not the only one who sees it, where you can think out loud about the state of the world with people who get it, and leave with people you’ll keep building with.
What brings you here?
Pick what you’re looking for and we’ll show you where to start.
You’ll leave with something real, and people to keep building with.
Rigorous and hands-on
Live sessions over a weekend or across 4 to 8 weeks, taught by the person who designed the course. You leave with something real, like an op-ed, a podcast or a workshop you run in your own community.
Capped at 25 so everyone is heard
Small enough that you talk, ask and get to know people joining from across borders. Your teacher will know your name. If you aren’t in class, you will be missed.
Community that keeps going
Coaching calls, networking calls and peer matching continue after your course ends. When you enroll in a course, you join our community.

A note from our founder
Chances are, you’re already doing powerful work in the world. You’re not enrolling because you’re missing something. You’re enrolling because you know you have something more to offer.
See you in class,
Besan Abu-Joudeh
Who’s teaching
Scholars, artists and practitioners who teach what they practice, from Paris to Trinidad to Seattle.
A community of like-hearted people
“The time we had together was the highlight of my week — to feel less alone and to connect with others in this time feels imperative. I feel deep gratitude for the nurturing and transgressive space Shraddha held for our questions, our stories, our grief and longings.”
“The course is like gaining a Swiss Army knife. It provides me with the tools I need to pursue my ideas. It helps me see my creativity as a powerful skill and lets me access ideas without feeling overwhelmed.”
“I appreciated the insights, the activities, and the relational approach. There was a great sense of collaboration on the course. It really helped me to advance my thinking about feedback dialogues, and I’ll incorporate that into my work.”

16 course credits to use across any open course for one year, with the same community around you the whole way.
