The vote · Opens 12 September
Choose what we share with everyone.
Five shared human needs. Many ways of seeing them. Anyone can vote, free. The top three in each pillar become public spotlight conversations, streamed live for everyone and kept on YouTube. The full summit goes deeper.
How the vote works
Three picks per pillar. Fifteen in all.
On stage, disagreement is moderated toward the shared need: challenge ideas, not people's humanity, and leave room for questions and correction.

Fifteen public conversations
The vote chooses what we livestream for everyone. It does not limit the full programme.
Why three per pillar?
So a quiet pillar is not drowned out by a loud one, and no single interest sweeps the week. You never choose between water and mental health: they sit in different pillars, so you can back both.
We rate-limit and screen submissions.
The ballot
Sixty topics. Pick fifteen.
Pick three in each pillar, then move on. Change any pick later.
