Join the Campaign to End Loneliness for their international conference which will celebrate the people and organisations from around the world who are addressing loneliness.

8th February 2024 10am-5pm

In 2018, the UK Government appointed the world’s first minister for loneliness and launched its first loneliness strategy. Five years on, there has been concerted action by government and all parts of society, as well as a global pandemic, that led almost all of us to live in physical isolation and to reflect on the meaning of our relationships. As we look forward to the next five years, we must, as a community of people working on loneliness, continue to move the issue forwards.

Panel discussions and keynotes will include:
Who is most at risk of loneliness? Findings from the WCPP Loneliness Inequalities Evidence Review
Loneliness inequalities: How organisations are responding
The perspective of leading UK and international politicians
Young people and loneliness: What are the drivers of youth loneliness and how can we address it?
Tackling loneliness through the built environment: How can we create a spread of inclusive, accessible places that foster social connection?
Tech and togetherness: How can digital tools help to build online and offline connections?
The role of arts and creativity in addressing loneliness
Networks and places: Creating a system-wide approach to tackling loneliness
Lonely narratives: authors reflect on loneliness
