Be the Catalyst Summit
The Be the Catalyst Summit is Catalyst Miami's signature gathering where community leaders from all walks of life explore and co-create solutions to Miami-Dade County's most critical challenges. Be the Catalyst, formerly known as the Poverty Solutions Summit, is a space where grassroots, business, faith, and civic leaders can come together for a series of important conversations and learning sessions.
From housing unaffordability to economic development, our changing climate to health care access, we're facing the issues head-on, with a focus on what matters most to our community.
Goals:
- To learn together and strengthen relationships
- To align partners and drive momentum around transformative initiatives, like models of community economic autonomy (the ability for a community to control its own economic activity and resources, rather than others deciding those for us)
- To promote our community's policy priorities, like housing justice and medical debt, and discuss innovative policy ideas
- To propel movements that are both meeting immediate needs and shaping a more just, equitable, joyful tomorrow
Be inspired to turn ideas into action and build community-driven alliances. Be a catalyst for change — starting here in Miami-Dade.
