This is an invitation to any woman who feels passionately about creating better places to live--better for people and nature--through housing; creating homes and neighbourhoods that are about connection, belonging, and meaning.  

Quality housing is the foundation of human thriving.  We are fed up with seeing the well-being and potential of our children, communities and future generations being compromised by low quality, expensive and insecure housing.

Join us for a weekend of inspiration about change that is already gaining traction, networking with inspiring women, and exploration of what is possible to revolutionise housing in Aotearoa New Zealand. 

There will be time for personal nourishment and professional challenge. We aim for you to leave the retreat feeling replenished, connected, fired up and ready to roar and soar.

This is a not-for-profit event and we want the retreat to be inclusive for any woman who wants to attend to be able to do so.  Most women who are driving housing change in their communities are doing so in addition to other work and family responsibilities.   Attending this retreat will give participants the support network and connections they need to thrive,... the validation of their vision as worthy to achieve, the courage to carry on despite the many obstacles and the strength to go beyond the status quo to succeed at creating the housing solutions we desperately need throughout the country.

We are offering financial assistance to women to attend but cannot do so without donations.

If we are able to raise more than just to cover participation costs, we would also like to create a seed fund that will support one or more women’s housing project needs, to push the needle forward.

If you’d like to sponsor this event, please contact us with your interest to support the kaupapa of this retreat and the larger mission of supporting the work of women revolutionising the housing system in Aotearoa.  It is only through partnership and collaboration that we can make a bigger impact.
