In a world where algorithms accelerate faster than human deliberation, where attention is engineered for profit, and where democratic institutions struggle to keep pace with technological change, we invite you to pause.
This retreat convenes senior policy leaders and public servants for a grounded encounter with presence, moral discernment, and the art of sustaining human judgment within AI-mediated systems.
Set within the tranquil landscape of Broughton Sanctuary, we explore what it means to lead when algorithms accelerate faster than human deliberation and how contemplative practices offer the stability we need to protect democratic values, attention, and technological accountability.
Across four days, we adapt the Benedictine pattern of daily rhythm: silence, meditation and communal prayer, focused work, and reflective reading to pave the way for clarity, courage, and sustained moral attention.
