Aspen Institute UK
Aspen UK is an independent charity which supports and inspires leaders to transform themselves and their society.
Aspen UK is committed to bridging the UK’s political, social, and cultural divides. We help leaders from all facets of society become more aware of their own values, more tolerant of a diversity of perspectives, and more inspired to create positive change.
We believe respectful dialogue is a tool that can catalyse societal progress and help create stronger leaders. Our nonpartisan environment helps thought leaders discuss the critical issues we face today and create meaningful solutions for the future.
Our public engagement programmes gather top experts from across the UK and around the world to address some of the most complex and pressing problems, explore their future consequences and potential solutions.
See our Events section for more information.
Our leadership programmes bring together leaders with diverse opinions, experiences, and backgrounds, and are designed to support a values-based style of leadership, which has tolerance and dialogue at its core.
See our Seminars section for more information.
We ensure our conversations include a variety of people and perspectives, because we understand diverse experiences and backgrounds are critical to enriching and enabling better dialogue.
Aspen UK runs series of timely and thought-provoking events, inviting top thinkers to examine and attempt to solve some of our most pressing challenges.
‘At a time when understanding the interests of a wide group of stakeholders is more important than ever, the Aspen UK Seminar was an exceptional opportunity to develop different perspectives on strategic thinking and leadership.’
