Conference Focus
As the world and our society rapidly evolve, this is the moment to come together and explore how mindfulness can move beyond its current boundaries, reaching into areas of critical need and serving as a positive force for change. The conference offers a unique opportunity to meet and engage with leaders in the field of mindfulness and compassion. In addition, it will include voices that have historically not had a seat at the table. This gathering will serve as a space for connection, inquiry and discussion, aimed at shaping the dialogue for the coming decades.
The conference programme will be centred around five key strands, spanning the latest research, contemplative approaches, and innovative concepts. This will include addressing the many social and global objectives for mindfulness and compassion, all aimed at enhancing our health and well-being, mitigating conflict and stress, and ultimately benefiting the planet.
An exciting conference programme is in place, bringing together a rich range of speakers, including names such as Jon Kabat-Zinn (joining virtually), Rhonda Magee, Martine Batchelor, Vidyamala Burch who will come together to discuss the theme of Mindfulness in Changing World. The conference aims to be an inclusive, welcoming atmosphere for all.
