ATD Fourth World’s virtual ‘Wider World Conversations’ began in 2023, serving as an opportunity for individuals to develop a sense of connection to ATD Fourth World’s actions across the world, as well as to discover and explore topics more broadly related to the wider context of social justice and anti-poverty action.

Participants take turns facilitating conversations, creating safe spaces to delve into broad interests. From questions of how to communicate ethically and authentically, to gaining an understanding of missing and murdered Indigenous women in New Mexico, to connecting to musicians from Playing for Change, Wider World Conversations spark thoughtful and inspiring conversations, allow participants to share ideas, and build a global community.

We are delighted to announce that, after a brief pause in late 2025, these conversations have resumed!

These conversations are open to ATD Fourth World members, and those interested in our work — wherever in the world they’re based. We would love to welcome you into our WWCs, so if you are interested in joining in, please reach out to skeltond(at)atd-uk(dot)org for more information.
