noe experience
The noe experience is an annual three-day retreat that brings together around 20 young changemakers from across the world for an immersive time in community. Away from the demands of daily life, you get to explore a single, pressing issue in depth, such as burnout, while nurturing connection and collective care. Our approach is rooted in empathy, storytelling, and shared presence.
We believe that stepping away together - sharing meals, listening to each other’s journeys, and holding space for both rest and reflection - can restore energy, inspire new perspectives, and strengthen our capacity for change-making. The noe experience is like returning to the village - a place to slow down, refill your cup, and return to your work renewed.
Recap of our last noe experience
In July 2024, we gathered with 15 changemakers in Brandenburg, Germany, where we explored the theme of burnout. Together, we examined how burnout arises, learned to recognize its signs, and reflected on ways to recover from it. Most importantly, we developed practical strategies to prevent burnout while working toward systemic change.
