University of Alberta, Education Building North, Room 2-115
Presenter: Dr. Reva Joshee
Revisit some of the core principles of Gandhi's teachings and consider their applicability to many of the global crises that we are now facing. As Martin Luther King Jr. observed, “If humanity is to progress, Gandhi is inescapable. He lived, thought and acted, inspired by the vision of humanity evolving toward a world of peace and harmony. We ignore him at our own risk.”
As we grapple with increasing social malaise and widespread environmental degradation, we may be surprised at how relevant Gandhi's vision continues to be.
