Connect
The Spark is an initiative to reconnect with nature, yourself and each other and reshape our future from there.
Creating spaces, experiences and gatherings in nature to build connection, imagine our common future and take action.

Act
It started with an Earth Experience to celebrate World Earth Day together in Nature during Easter 2025 in the Netherlands.
The ambition is to grow to a movement of concerned and involved citizens that want to build a new world based on regeneration and unity

Earth Connect @ Laughing Hearts Festival
The Spark is hosting an Earth Connect session during the Laughing Hearts Festival in Chaumont, Northern France. The Laughing Heart Festival is inspired by the Burning Man Festival in Nevada (USA). We encourage all participants to contribute creatively to the festival—whether by playing music, showcasing artwork, offering amazing massages or yoga classes, reading poetry, or even reading palms! If you’re unsure how to contribute, you can still be part of the experience by helping out with bar service or other community tasks. We are a small, intimate festival that values safety and diversity, creating a welcoming space for everyone. We’d love to see you this June in the stunning French countryside—just 4.5 hours from Amsterdam, and 2.5 hours from both Brussels and Paris by car. https://festival-de-chaumont.com/

Spark the Future: Summer Women Trailblazer Walk
Spark the Future is an event series that centres around inspiration for a radically new future springing from a deep connection with nature, your own inner wisdom and other change makers. Taking inspiration from art, literature, philosophy and science, we re-imagine the future and conceive concrete ideas to reshape the world. In “Balanced Feminine Future”, we imagine a future in which women and feminine values are rebalanced to reshape society based on principles of empathy, equity and earth-centered wisdom. It is a space hosted in nature to meet other involved trailblazers that support this vision. This Spark the Future event is a curated event on invite only, but that will be different for future ones!
