"PARLIAMENT OF THE PEOPLE"
Tuesday, August 31-Friday, September 3 12:00 PM–2:00 PM
Red Lacquer Ballroom (Fourth Floor)
The "Parliament of the People" is a four-day series of open forums and facilitated activities that will bring the voice of the people to the Parliament's proceedings. This will be your opportunity to respond to Parliament programs, express your views about the critical issues, and to communicate your concerns to the Assembly of Religious and Spiritual Leaders, which will be meeting in closed session for three days. The "Parliament of the People" will consider ways in which we might work together after the Parliament to address the challenges of violence, environmental degradation, human suffering, and other concerns that affect the welfare of the global family.
