The Wisdom of Hope Circle invites you to join an international World Values Day conversation about how hope moves from an inner feeling of care into meaningful contribution.
Through small-group conversations, we will explore the fears, risks and personal barriers that can prevent us from acting on what we value. We will also reflect on the courage, inner capacity and support that make action possible. Ultimately, the conversation is about how each of us can make a difference within ourselves, in our relationships, in our communities and in the wider world.
As a Circle, we wish to explore how our values give rise to hope, and how hope, expressed individually and collectively, can mobilize the human spirit into action and help make the world a better place for all.
This engaging 90-minute session marks the Wisdom of Hope Circle’s sixth year of participation in World Values Day. The Circle is an international forum of 15 people connecting diverse experiences and perspectives from Bali, El Paso, Hong Kong-Singapore, Kyiv, Vienna, London, São Paulo, the Washington, D.C.–Baltimore region, Toronto,
Vancouver, and Winnipeg.
