OUR IMMERSIONS
Storytelling is evolving — and audiences are demanding more. Around the world, climate-aware storytelling is emerging as a powerful marker of relevance, depth, and success.
Our exclusive immersions invite leading creatives and decision-makers to explore the new frontier of storytelling: one that reflects the world we live in and the future we're heading toward.
Join global and local leaders to uncover how integrating climate themes can unlock narrative richness, resonate with contemporary audiences, and keep your work ahead of the curve — shaping both culture and what comes next.
OUR ALUMNI
Claudia Karvan
“The immersion was a huge creative turning point for me. Coming home, I got straight to work on my TV show Bump and went all-in telling this seasons’ story with more of a climate focus, bringing in humour and offering glimmers of hope to people watching.”
Phoebe Tonkin
"My trip with Groundswell was one of those profound, once in a lifetime experiences I will never forget. We learnt from the very best in climate leadership, workshopped and bonded with other like minded artists, and sang songs under the stars next to the very ocean we are all fighting to protect.”
Simon Baker
“The immersion was a powerful experience — one I’ll always be grateful for. It gave me the chance to listen, share, and connect with people who care deeply about creating a better future for the planet.”

GROUNDSWELL
Groundswell was built on a simple idea: when brilliant people come together, extraordinary things happen.
Our gatherings bring together leaders from business, culture, and the community to tackle the most pressing challenges and boldest opportunities in climate and energy.
Carefully designed to spark innovation, they are where meaningful connections are forged, transformative ideas take shape, and real solutions are born.
To date, over 200 influential Australians have joined us, including singer Paul Kelly, swimmer Ian Thorpe, actor Claudia Karvan, ASX Board Directors, world champion surfers, and farmers reimagining the future of agriculture.
In 2025, we're partnering with the Hollywood Climate Summit to amplify collaboration and inspire action, bringing together the brightest storytelling minds to drive powerful ideas forward and create content that shapes a stronger, more sustainable and vibrant future.
