The session titled "What's Your Trust Definition?" during the Regen Alliances Unconference Opening Day centered around exploring the multi-faceted concept of trust. The key points discussed in the session were as follows:

• Relation to Self and Vulnerability: The session highlighted the influence of self-trust on trusting others and the importance of being comfortable with vulnerability and recognizing associated risks.
• Unconditional Love and Conditions for Trust: The relationship between unconditional love, acceptance, and trust was explored, as well as the identification of honesty as a crucial condition for trust.
• Importance of Trust: The significance of trust in relationships and the role of character, competence, and judgment in either eroding or strengthening trust were emphasized.
• Balancing Judgment and Trust: Discussion focused on the role of judgment in establishing trust and the importance of creating inclusive environments where everyone feels comfortable speaking up without fear of judgment.
• Trust, Judgment, and Gender Diversification: The importance of establishing frameworks that empower individuals to speak up and the need for inclusive environments to build trust were highlighted, with specific attention to gender diversification.
• Different Types of Trust: The exploration of advance trust and emergent trust, evaluating trust levels, and the role of knowledge and common sense in building trust were discussed.
• Trust and Reputation: The complex relationship between trust, reputation, collective knowledge, shared values, and aspirations in building trust was explored.
• Framing Trust: The concept of trust was suggested to be framed in two words: "aspiration economy" and "reputation," capturing the values, aspirations, and reputation that contribute to trust.

These discussions aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of trust, emphasizing its significance in creating inclusive, accepting, and empowering environments, as well as its interconnectedness with reputation and individual and collective aspirations.
