From Proof to Power: Designing the Next Phase of the Movement
Thursday September 17, 2026 3:30pm - 4:30pm EDT
Room 301
Building on the themes from the panel earlier in the day titled From Proof to Power: Building the Infrastructure for Systems Change, this workshop, From Proof to Power: Designing the Next Phase of the Movement, will engage participants in helping identify and shape the infrastructure, leadership pathways, policy strategies, and collective action mechanisms needed to advance that work. The session is designed as a highly participatory working session and will generate recommendations that can inform future collaboration across the responsible business ecosystem.

Together with the panel above, the two sessions are intended to create a learning arc: understanding the challenge, exploring emerging solutions, and contributing to what comes next.
