Acumen founder and CEO Jacqueline Novogratz uses business strategies to solve problems of poverty around the world. In her latest book Manifesto for a Moral Revolution, Novogratz outlines the essential leadership practices needed for anyone who seeks to leave this world better than they found it.

Because of Covid 19 restrictions, writers and speakers from the UK will not be on the island in person, but they will speak to live audiences in Guernsey by video link, and the talks will be live streamed at the same time. These live-streamed talks, which will include question and answer sessions, will be based at Les Cotils and will be held from 11 to 15 May 2021.

The Festival starts earlier, though, with events organised with a number of locally-based writers and poets, starting on 27 April, and based mostly at the Guille Alles Library. Full details of all of the events can be found on the festival website

Here at The List we believe in investing in your health and wellbeing and celebrating local businesses.
