It is the perception and experience of this interconnectedness that brings a profound change in human consciousness toward the realization of a compassionate, just and sustainable world. We’ll explore some creative examples of how schools and other learning communities can instill a sense of global unity and compassionate action. Co-hosts Voices in Wartime, Yes! Magazine , Compassionate Listening Project, and The Heritage Institute will showcase several projects that open the mind and heart to the sense that we are all part and responsible to a larger community of life in which our individual lives gain greater meaning. You’ll be enriched by music, writing, story-telling and group discussion.
