Only 2 more days to go until the 2024 Resnick Aspen Action Forum! Over 400 changemakers from the Aspen Global Leadership Network community will come together in Aspen, CO to explore the most urgent questions of our time in the pursuit of shaping a better future. This year's theme "Only Light Can Do That," drawn from the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., invites us to reflect on how we might muster resilience and hope during dark times and find common ground amidst the heartbreak of our differing views. Can't attend in person? Tune into the mainstage livestreams from July 23–25 to be inspired by leaders on the frontlines of change. https://lnkd.in/dkmxrg3s

With everything happening in the world right now, social trust is at an all-time low. However, there is still hope. When leaders and organizations step up to inspire collaboration and innovatively address community challenges, fostering new networks of trust is possible. We call such individuals “weavers.” Join us to meet three such inspiring weavers—high school and college basketball coach Corin "Tiny" Adams CLC, community leader Mackenzie Langley, and Georgetown University’s residential minister Reed Howard—at our upcoming Weaving in 400 Seconds event on Monday, July 29th. Presented by Weave: The Social Fabric Project at the Aspen Institute, in this innovative format, weavers will share their insights and strategies for building trust and connection in the communities using 20 slides with only 20 seconds per slide. We hope to see you there! Register here: https://lnkd.in/dEVD3_Db

🚨 Announcing the National Task Force for Fraud & Scam Prevention 🚨 Today, we at The Aspen Institute Financial Security Program are launching a trailblazing initiative to combat financial fraud and scams and help rebuild trust in our financial system. This multi-sector partnership will unite leaders from government, law enforcement, private industry, and civil society to develop a comprehensive, nationwide strategy aimed at preventing fraud and scams. 🎯 The Task Force’s mission: * Consumer Education – launch a public education campaign to help consumers spot and report scams. * Prevention and Detection – enhance intelligence on the latest scams and tactics, and share best practices across sectors for mitigating harm to consumers. * Recovery and Prosecution – collaborate with consumer protections and law enforcement to expose criminals, helping to rebuild personal finances and public trust. Together, this work can help keep money in the pockets of hardworking Americans, strengthen households’ financial security, and help address society’s growing trust deficit. 👉 For more information about the National Task Force for Fraud & Scam Prevention, please visit https://lnkd.in/eX5Erkvi.
