People spending time and effort together
to build/create/design/develop/enable/ensure
a more generative society.

If we want...

A society that is free and curious, that focuses on human realization and the elevation of life, a country that is just, fair, and safe, that expects abundance, where our civic institutions invest in and support everyone, and where our lives are enriched by and our systems designed for the constant transformation of new and better ideas.

We need...

Vision

Animate our souls with faith and optimism in a generative future.

Kindness

Govern our public lives with the same kindness as our private lives. 

Duty

Embrace our interdependence and duty to each other. 

Reverence

Revere the spaces that ensure our possibilities and enrich our lives. 

Preservation

Preserve and distribute resources to enable and ensure meaning.

Healing

Heal our past as the foundation for a flourishing future.

Joy

Seek and expect joy.

Transformation

Know that our path will be constantly renewed by new and better ideas.

aVENS is...

...a collective effort to enable the cultural, economic, and institutional changes we need to move toward a more generative society. Avens interconnects visionaries and leaders and surrounds them with allies to help them continue to grow, build power, and accelerate our transformation.

Transformation can be lonely work. Leaders with a shared vision of a more just and joyous future need each other – not always for collaboration but for the comfort and strength that comes from togetherness and shared belief. They also need allies who can provide access to perspectives and resources beyond their own.

Together we will...
