Coming Soon

What the heck are social innovation labs? Why did systems change leaders think they might help with some of the complex challenges of our time? And where are labs headed next?

Coming soon from Action Lab, this is the Wicked Complex podcast, where we'll explore all of those questions.

Join us for a three-part series centred around the Future of Labs Gathering in British Columbia coming up in May 2024. We'll talk to experienced folks in this field before, during, and after the gathering to see when they think labs have lived up to their promise, when they haven't, and what they're hoping to decide together about where to go next.
