Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.
This webpage has been designed for members of the National Commission’s Funders Collaborative. It will serve as the central location for materials related to the National Commission. Many of the items listed will also be available on the public website but are being collected here for ease of reference.
Below you will find general information on the Commission including materials for the Commission’s convenings. In addition, you will find the agendas and materials for the Funders Collaborative update calls. Further information will be added as the work of the Commission progresses.
The Commission is grateful for the support of members of the Funders Collaborative, as well as additional funders.
