UNESCO-MOST BRIDGES is looking forward to the World Academy of Art and Science conference session co-chaired by Founding Executive Director of BRIDGES Steven Hartman & Garry Jacobs, President and CEO of WAAS:
“Toward a Transdisciplinary Theory of Change and Process of Social Evolution." Taking place on WEDNESDAY 26 JUNE. 12:00-13:45 EST; 17:00-18:45 BST; 18:00-19:45 CET; 21:30-23:15 IST)
This online session will examine the process of global social evolution in order to extract essential knowledge and insights needed to initiate a conscious movement of accelerated, positive transformation. It will explore questions such as: What can we learn about the process of social evolution from great changes in the past? Where does transformation get its energy and power for change? What are the different stages of transformation?
What is the role of individuals, organizations, ideas and values as catalysts of change? This session will attempt to gather the knowledge needed to initiate, guide and accelerate a conscious process of social transformation towards a better future for humanity.
The views presented at WAAS@64 will help the Board create a framework of programs and activities in support of the United Nations #SDGs, peace and human security for all.
We hope you will join us to follow the panel, with UNESCO-MOST BRIDGES Coalition Dr. Steven Hartman, online on 26 June!
