Pause & Shift: a reflective space for changemakers

Space for changemakers to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what sustains their work.
Pause & Shift is a calm, facilitated gathering at The Hague Humanity Hub for social entrepreneurs, NGO professionals, purpose-driven founders, and other changemakers working toward positive change.

Inspired by Climate Café principles, this is not a workshop, debate, coaching session, or therapy space. There is no fixing, problem-solving, or pressure to contribute. Instead, we gather to listen, reflect, and share — only if we wish — what is alive for us as changemakers navigating complex times.

This edition is facilitated by Tina Fischbach and Gregg Hone.

Come as you are.
Pause. Shift. Enter the rest of the day – and the weekend – more resourced.

Places are limited and this is an intimate, no-show-sensitive session. Please only register if you genuinely intend to join, and cancel your ticket if your plans change so someone else can take your place.

This is

• A facilitated listening space inspired by Climate Café principles

• Part of a broader culture of regeneration and care within the changemaker ecosystem

This is not

• Therapy or group counselling
• A coaching, training, or skill-building session
• A problem-solving, debating, or action-planning space
• A commitment-based group — attendance is entirely flexible
