Leadership Conference & Iceland
Begin your adventure in Berlin, where you’ll gain a deeper understanding of The Impact of Water on Society at our inspiring leadership conference and explore ways to harness this natural resource to make a bigger difference around the world.
Then travel to Iceland, the only country to have a form of water in its name. From the ocean to ancient glaciers and geothermal hotspots, this island nation simply wouldn’t be the same without water. Experience the Blue Lagoon, then dive into an adventure centered around the role that the ocean plays in daily Icelandic life, complete with fishing and whale watching. Immerse yourself in Iceland’s unforgettable landscapes, steaming hot springs, and extinct volcanic craters before returning home ready to take action in your own community.
