Social innovators often focus on adapting physical, governmental, or financial infrastructure to address the existential threats facing society. But the emotional infrastructure—the human element—can sometimes get overlooked in the pursuit of change. In an increasingly divisive world, Bridges to the Future shines a light on relationships and community, allowing social innovators and entrepreneurs to show up each day with the support, connection, and humanity needed to do the work that matters most. At the 2025 Skoll World Forum, this humanity was on full display, as we made meaningful connections, nurtured our spirits, and offered grace to those around us. With space for healing and collaboration, we can build bridges across divides and face the future—together. Bridges to the Future was first screened to our community, providing a chance to witness one another in a deeper, more vulnerable way. We invite you to be inspired by these moments. 🎬 Watch the full film now: skoll.wf/bridgeswf Thank you to the brave participants who said YES to this invitation: Sellah Bogonko of @JacobsLadder_A, @aarhh, Marcel Fukayama of Din4mo Lab, Gary Linnen of @PeerForward, Erin Vilardi of @VoteRunLead, EunSook Lee of @aapifund, Beadie Finzi of @TheDocSociety, Vivek Maru of @GlobalNamati, Ristika Putri of @Kab_Lestari, Cheryl Dorsey of @echoinggreen, Fernando Travesi of the International Center for Transitional Justice, Ifeoma Malo of @Cleantechhubng, Molly Melching of @Tostan, Liliana Madrigal of @AmazonTeamOrg, Sam Gregory of @witnessorg, and Rodney Foxworth of Common Future.
