About The Trailblazery
The Trailblazery was launched in 2011 at a time of crisis as a response to a need for deeper human connection and belonging in our society. We set out to creatively animate and amplify the spirit of the times we live in through live events, immersive learning experiences, creative mentorship programmes and cross-disciplinary research projects that tackle wicked problem solving.
Led by Creative Director Kathy Scott, The Trailblazery champions people who blaze trails and nudge humanity forward. We have initiated many creative projects including The Freedom Project, We Need to Talk about Ireland, Rites of Passage and the ireland : iceland project. In 2016 we designed Census of the Heart, an alternative census that captured the emotional state of the nation 100 years after the Rebellion. In 2018 in response to #MeToo and #Repeal we founded Moon Medicine, a circle that invites women to rise and lift each other up along the way. We also facilitate an online training programme that empowers women all over the world to to blaze trails at our Global Academy. In 2019 in the light of the Climate Crisis and Extinction Rebellion we curated two sold out immersive Solstice Learning Experiences in the heart of the Dublin Mountains. In the crucible moment of lockdown in 2020 we launched HedgeSchool - a virtual home school rooted in Ireland that invites people around the world on a collective learning experience to find our shared humanity and resource our collective possibility as global citizens.
