Lectures, discussions, panels, seminars, slide and video presentations, demonstrations, workshops, etc. These presentations constitute the largest segment of the Parliament program. As the program evolved, over thirty major themes emerged from religion, spirituality, and interfaith dialogue to the critical issues facing the human community.
The Seminars & Lectures will be held (Tuesday through
Friday) in the Conference Center of the Palmer House. The Center is divided into six wings. Each of those areas will be home to a "Wing" of the Parliament Program. Each Wing combines several related themes. Seminars & Lectures on

The great majority of the Major Presentations, Seminars & Lectures, Symposia, Performances, etc. will take place between Tuesday, August 31 and Saturday, September 4. Most of these programs will be scheduled in one of three principal time slots (indicated on the program grid, facing page):
Sessions A (10:00 AM-12:00 PM) Sessions B (2:00 PM-3:30 PM) Sessions C (4:00 PM-5:30 PM).

Each program grouping (Major Presentations, Seminars & Lectures, Symposia, etc.) is listed separately in this catalogue. Make sure to check the day's listings under each heading as you make your choices.
Programs are listed alphabetically by room within each major time slot.
