Join our forum on 31 March at Temasek Shophouse to move past theory into action.About this EventFinding Common Ground in a Divided WorldIt is easy to see how the world is pulling apart.Many societies are currently at an increased risk of fragmentation, driven by social polarisation, geoeconomic confrontation, and the spread of misinformation. It is much harder to find the places where we stay together.As communities become more divided, "equity" is often treated as a buzzword. It is discussed in theory, but it is rarely put into practice when people actually disagree. The real challenge is not just acknowledging that we are different; it is the difficult work of finding common ground when perspectives feel worlds apart.How do we move past the noise and find a shared way forward?This forum moves past academic ideas to explore the practical reality of bridging divides. It is based on the idea that we cannot achieve a fair society by simply treating everyone the same regardless of their starting point - because nothing says equality like equity.Our panel will share how they actually do this work in their own fields, focusing on:Moving beyond the surface: Why true inclusion requires looking at the specific needs of different people.Building connections: How to communicate and collaborate when groups are becoming more isolated from each other.Creating safe spaces: How to build environments where people feel safe to speak honestly.Taking practical steps: Simple ways that individuals and organizations can ensure everyone has a fair chance to succeed.PanellistsShamane Tan leads global growth and outreach strategy as a C-Suite leader with Sekuro, a global cybersecurity and digital resiliency solutions provider, working closely with the C-Suite and Directors.
