COVID-19 has escalated our understanding and experience of the very destructive and unjust world that we as the human race have engineered for centuries!

NOW the Human Race has to write and execute its most important design brief in the history of humanity: To Design a thriving future for ALL people and the planet!

“How do we collaborate and unite in solidarity to design the future world we all desire?”

The ODA Festival is underpinned by the beautiful SA philosophy of Ubuntu which simply means “I am because you are”.  The purpose of our festival is to help drive and ignite the systemic change we are all seeking in our country and Afrika. To change mindsets and behaviour, unlock new ideas and ignite aspirations and hope for a better future, and develop a thriving future-ready society of change makers and problem solvers who are equipped with future skills, creative intelligence, mindset, and confidence to know how to add significance and meaning at the center of purpose-driven businesses, sustainable environments, and thriving communities now and in the future. We believe that COVID-19 has escalated the value of ODA Festival. JOIN US and let’s learn, share, play, collaborate, and experience together!

The festival program is curated to feature events and experiences for people from all walks of life who want to learn new skills and more about the possibilities and opportunities to get involved and help drive change in our society and diverse communities.
