Coordinated by Promega Corporation and the BTC Institute, the International Forum on Consciousness offers a lively two days of information-sharing and discussion regarding important – and often challenging – topics.
This year's Forum -- Consciousness of Connection - Awakening from Despair to Awe -- continues the journey: We will examine the kinds of connections that transcend our individual selves, and reach our inner desire to be part of an interconnected world and transform our current sense of the individual, community, and society, from independent to interdependent. More specifically, we will examine connection across the primary aspects of our lives:
- Self, and the many selves in our amazing neural networks
- Others, and the multiple communities we intersect
- Nature, and the breadth of life forms that surround us
