Changemakers need to be able to speak with confidence, facilitate with impact, and tell stories that connect. The skills that underpin these abilities, from managing tricky situations to designing engaging conversations, are not a “nice to have,” they are essential.
HBC Fest 2026 brings together an inspiring programme of immersive workshops, reflective spaces, and practical tools designed to help changemakers thrive. The practical skills workshops use holistic learning approaches to engage all the senses. Whether you’re leading teams, working in communities, or shaping strategy, this event will strengthen the human skills that turn good intentions into real-world impact.
HBC Fest blends facilitators from across the wider HBC team together with a number of special guest collaborators, offering diverse voices and approaches. Participants can expect a mix of large group sessions, small-group sessions, and collaborative challenges, all designed to deepen skills, spark reflection and create meaningful connections with fellow changemakers.

Imagine starting your morning with some gentle exercise, then stepping into a workshop that doesn’t just teach you skills but lets you feel them through experiential exercises, storytelling, embodiment work, and creative problem-solving.

Throughout the festival, you’ll explore the essential capabilities every change maker needs:
Conversations for change; speaking with clarity and confidence
Meetings that matter; designing spaces where real progress happens
Interventions with impact; experiences that shift mindsets and behaviours...
