Lectures and workshops
Elena Simons regularly provides lectures and workshops on the subject of fungagement, or how to have loads of fun by changing the world. There are many serious problems in the world. But why confront them in serious ways? Express your rebellious energy! Engage in actions that will surprise and charm your audience, thus catalysing real change.

In her lectures, Elena Simons explains why fun is so valuable and how it can be applied to social or environmental issues. During workshops, the participants conduct brainstorm sessions to make plans for exciting actions. For example, students in Hong Kong developed a free flying action during which they treated passerbys to a brief flight in their arms. An employee of a Dutch broadcasting firm came up with the idea that traffic authorities might photograph people who respect the speed limit and go to their house to offer them a framed print in thanks.
