Öckerö Lighthouse Conversations

Pathways Towards a Healthy Public Discourse

Öckerö Lighthouse Conversation gathers individuals from multiple sectors and backgrounds to search for new ways forward in creating a healthy public conversation.

Shared Perspectives, Co-creation & Actions

In our Lighthouse Conversations, we co-create and bring light to questions of our time, with our future in mind. Together, we explore these issues from multiple perspectives—personal, organizational, and societal—with the aim to inspire meaningful actions.

Beauty & Breathtaking Landscape

Welcome to Öckerö! Just outside Gothenburg, you’ll find a stunning archipelago. The island of Öckerö is easy to reach, and accommodation can be conveniently booked through Öckerö Lighthouse Conversations.

Music & Food

We believe that thoughts and reflections awaken through the senses. At Öckerö Lighthouse Conversations, each day is enriched with shared moments, music that stirs the soul, and food that delights the senses

“Through our conversation, we enrich, challenge, inspire and inform each other”

Welcome to Öckerö Lighthouse Conversations 2025

Stormy Weather - Navigating a Changing World

Join us to Öckerö to refuel, recharge, and reconnect—helping shift the lighthouse a little further, so that the public discourse guides society toward safer waters rather than towards ever more conflict and polarisation. 

Our converations build on co-creation - what we as participants bring to the table.

The Lighthouse Conversation 2025, September 5–7th, will address how to navigate in a new world order - and take the needed steps on both individually, locally, nationally and globally level.

As one part of our pathway forward we will continue to build on the insights from Lighthouse 2024 - how we better meet and talk to each other in an increasingly dysfunctional public discourse.
