About Us
Welcome to the Bridge of Hope Summit
Bridge of Hope arose as a bold and rapid response to recent upheaval in the humanitarian field. As the organizers, we know people who were impacted first-hand by funding cuts, policy changes, and global uncertainty. Many humanitarian workers have been left to navigate sudden changes to their personal and professional lives with little support.
Out of disruption came a powerful idea: a free, global online summit to support humanitarian workers navigating change. While we can’t always control life’s events, we can control how we respond — by building resilience, forging connections, and reigniting our capacity to imagine and create a better future.
For humanitarian and development workers facing unprecedented challenges, this is your bridge forward to hope. Hosted by Equilibrium Oasis, a platform dedicated to sustainable well-being in high-impact, high-stress environments, the summit is guided by Salochanee Reddy , PhD and Peter Bonanno, M.Ed to inspire, challenge, and connect those leading change in the humanitarian and social sectors.
At Bridge of Hope, we believe that there are no “easy answers” to the challenges the world collectively faces. Instead, we put our trust in connecting people with each other, and connecting each person with their own innate wisdom & purpose to envision a future that will be for the benefit of all. This is the orientation that the organizers and speakers will hold during the Summit.
As the world witnesses breakdown and change in global institutions, we hope that more solutions can emerge like Bridge of Hope: organized “from the people, for the people,” nimble and responsive to on-the-ground realities that humanitarian workers face.
