In a world where we are repeatedly fractured by differences that erupt into violence, the power of love and forgiveness is one of the human capacities that can provide us with hope for a different future. Though love and forgiveness may be understood differently across the world's traditions, they are core concepts that remain key to the health of the human family. Please join us for a journey of questions, dialogue, story and most of all, listening, as we explore the themes of love and forgiveness as they relate to our world. This program will also introduce a series of Open Space sessions running throughout the Parliament for people to share stories of love and forgiveness.
