Why attend?

Because fairness doesn’t happen on its own and health outcomes won’t improve unless we build the connecting systems that serve everyone well.

Now more than ever, we need leadership that can navigate complexity and deliver tangible change. This Summit is for those who believe in a fairer, healthier society, and understand it takes courage, strategy and collective action to get there.

Join others who are working across systems to address the root causes of inequity, challenging the status quo and building a future where fairness isn’t an ideal—it’s the foundation for wellbeing, belonging and opportunity.

What to expect:

You’ll hear bold ideas, learn from diverse perspectives, and connect with others committed to equity in action. With a program of inspiring talks, rich discussions and practical takeaways, you’ll leave with insight and motivation to keep leading where it matters most.

Who should attend?

The Summit is designed for anyone working at the intersection of systems and equity – whether you’re shaping policy, delivering services, influencing funding, or driving research or reform.

If you’re leading change in health, education, housing, justice, environment, early years, employment or philanthropy and believe fairness should be a strategic priority, this space is for you.

This year’s theme:
Fair by Design

Fairness doesn’t happen on its own.

We need to reimagine the fair go — and redesign systems to deliver it. This year’s program explores how equity can move from principle to practice in complex, shifting environments.
