2018 INAUGURAL SESSION
Making Change
Monday, June 18–Thursday, June 21, 2018
Making Change is an intensive four-day program designed to give participants a set of tools and ideas that will enable them to reflect on their own lives and have a positive impact on the world. Participants will examine the theme of change from four perspectives:
Individual practices for transformation
Case studies on lives of extraordinary impact
Turning points in history
Contemporary issues of religion, ethics, and social transformation
In addition to learning with some of Harvard Divinity School’s leading teachers and scholars, participants will engage deeply with peers, learn in exceptional places on Harvard’s campus, and work with collections that illustrate the theme of change and transformation in human history, culture and achievement.
Drawing deeply on history and world religious traditions, participants will be challenged to consider both their own ways of living and how they can address some of the most pressing issues in the world today.
