From war, to racial injustice, to climate change—humanity is facing a crisis of disconnection. Mind & Life’s 2022 Summer Research Institute (SRI) on “Othering, Belonging, and Becoming,” taking place online June 6-10, explores the role of the mind in creating today’s divisions and in the transformation we need for a more connected world. Anyone whose work or passion aligns with this topic is welcome to attend. Participants span a range of ages, professions, backgrounds, and countries, with faculty representing a range of disciplines. Presenters include restorative justice practitioner sujatha baliga, Indigenous scholar and activist Yuria Celidwen, social neuroscientist Lasana Harris, social psychologist Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela, Palestinian peace activist Sulaiman Khatib, and law professor john a. powell, among others.
Full and partial scholarships are available from Mind & Life.
