TC/ESG 2025 Conference

Thank you!

In August 2025, more than 400 participants from 70 countries came together in Johannesburg for TC/ESG 2025 — our seventh global gathering, dedicated to navigating sustainability transformations toward justice and equity

Over four days in Johannesburg, 330 speakers and more than 130 sessions wove together science, policy, art, and practice — drawing deeply on local energy, artistry, and leadership. Conversations tackled difficult questions of power, disconnection, and uneven futures, while opening space for creativity, care, and possibility. What gave the gathering its depth were the voices, perspectives, and commitments that participants carried into the room.

From plenaries to workshops, from sensemaking sessions to artistic activations, TC/ESG25 was more than a conference. It was a living experiment in how to connect and sustain transformation initiatives that often operate in isolation or under strain, and a reminder that our capacity grows when we work in community.
