We’re looking to nature to remind us of our shared humanity.
We all share common ground. It’s right under us.
Kairos is a nonprofit organization turning to nature to help us understand and bridge our human-created divides. Through immersive, nature-based experiences, we invite people to step across boundaries of ideology and identity and into a space of shared humanity. We’re taking a root cause approach to what divides us; we believe that solving the challenges of our time can only happen with collaboration, and that collaboration starts with connection. By rediscovering our most essential common ground—the natural world— we aim to create pathways of empathy, understanding, and cooperation. Nature is our generous and capable guide in this work; nothing is more effective than awe and wonder for diminishing divides and opening our minds to new perspectives and possibilities.
Our mission
Our mission is to deepen connections—both with nature and with each other—through transformative in-person experiences. We create nature-based programs that aim to encourage curiosity, invite moments of awe, and inspire a deeper connection to the natural world. With nature as our setting and our guide, we’re cultivating stronger human connections, building our capacity to listen with empathy, value diverse perspectives, and navigate our differences.
Our vision
We envision a world where people feel deeply connected—to each other and the natural world. A world where these connections inspire curiosity, compassion, and cooperation. We believe we can live more harmoniously amid our differences and can create a sustainable future for people and the planet.
