March 2026 Global Theme: Local
Our theme for March is LOCAL (pronounced lo·cal). In Portuguese it means “place or being a resident or native to a particular area.” It was chosen by our Santos chapter in Brazil and illustrated by Simone Matias.
Our Santos chapter had this to say about the significance of this month’s theme: “We are proud to be from Santos. The feeling of loving the city but sometimes moving away. The benefits of belonging somewhere.”
Each month, a different CreativeMornings chapter chooses a theme for all global CM talks taking place in cities around the world. This year, many of our monthly themes will be in that chapter’s local language.
The hope is that this will give each theme a richer meaning and foster deeper connections to other communities and cultures.
Here's some resources to inspire your own reflections on this month's theme:
