tsiMORAY's annual conference - Connecting ideas, people, Moray

This year, Join The Dots takes a look at three priorities - three windows - into our future.

Together, with our panel of guest speakers, we will look at why and how the third sector and our communities can shape:

1. Building Belonging

Wellbeing starts in our communities when people feel they belong. How can we bridge 'disconnect' and make places where diversity and equality thrives? What do we need to do to build, sustain and boost belonging, so that it remains strong and integral to the work we do in our communities?

2. Using AI and Technology for Good

Digital technology enables new ways of communicating, creating, living and working.

While Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been around for awhile, for most of us, AI platforms such as ChatGPT and Bing is new. The potential power of AI technology is difficult to exaggerate. It will be up to all of us, individually and collectively, to influence how AI will shape our future. Local community groups and organisations can create a future where AI is used for Good. Let's find out how.

3. Advancing Local Climate Action

With Moray's Climate Action Network now officially launched, and with a large number of local projects underway thanks to Moray's Local Action Group and the Just Transition Participatory Budgeting Fund, we will be finding out what needs to happens next, so that we can accelerate local climate action. We'll also be able to see how this action will be supported by the new Community Led Vision for Moray.

The Future of Fundraising

In our afternoon keynote session, we will be exploring, more in depth, a critical element in shaping our future - funding.

Hear about where fundraising might be going and how funders are viewing the future, including how AI might feature.

During the day, there'll be the opportunity to network and also connect with stallholders offering information and support.
