WELCOME TO

Our Mission

We are an annual conference and festival held in Charleston founded to create agency and hope through community-driven solutions. 

The Hope Summit is a multidisciplinary and intersectional ideas and solutions summit with core thematic tracks that include water quality and plastic pollution, stewardship and citizen science, governance, ecological restoration, resilience and adaptation, storytelling as a catalyst of change, environmental justice, and traditional ways of experiencing and managing terrestrial and marine ecosystems.

Our Theme in 2024

Reshaping our relationship with water, waterways, and the ocean through community-driven solutions.
