Event History
Inspiring Minds – March 2021

Transformative Change: Where Research and Action in the World Meet

Inspiring Minds: Live Conversations Offering Wisdom for Our Time

Our March conversation, “Transformative Change: Where Research and Action in the World Meet,” features Doris Chang and Reggie Hubbard, with musician Grant Jones.

On March 10 our guests discussed the tendency for research and ‘real-world’ practice to get siloed. What can contemplative scientists and changemakers working to advance social justice learn from and share with each other? This month’s episode explores the role of contemplative practice in supporting social change leaders, and strategies for promoting social justice and influencing policies and practices within systems.
