Even though technology allows us to be closer than ever before, why do we have a chronic sense of disconnect?
Can there be a balance between the economy, the environment and human rights?
What is slavery in modern times?
(e.g. human trafficking, forced labor, sexual exploitation)
How will climate change affect our lives?
What does human progress look like in the 21st century?
How can we rebuild a culture of trust, empathy and compassion?
The 2016 Peace Conference is a shared inquiry into a way of life that embodies underlying human values of compassion, care, generosity, and trust. Amid global challenges of the 21st century, the conference advocates that everyday people can redefine the narrative and recognize their vital role in shaping our world– simply by “being the change they wish to see” to create communities that are just, compassionate, and sustainable.
Who is attending?
Organized by a crew of volunteers who believe that being the change, changes the being, the conference holds space for researchers, educators, artists, advocates, students, and seekers to explore, redefine and lead with these deeper values in practical ways.
Our Vision
Drawn together by a shared resonance at the intersection of impact, awareness, and transformation, this collective gathering may fuel, ignite, and inspire ways for participants to be deeper stewards of technology, economics, education, art, and social media in a way that can recreate communities to thrive on the power and shared values of knowledge and service.
This is a zero waste event!
