Epiphanies, Tensions, and Horizons: Pathways Forward

In this session, we will reflect on the lessons from the day’s workshops, examine their implications for the fields of contemplative and transformative education, and outline potential pathways forward. We will consider the following questions: How did these conversations impact how we see ourselves and our work? What new areas of focus emerged through these conversations? Are we thinking differently about our respective work as a result of these sessions? Going forward, what are the opportunities for collaboration, creativity, and change? Are there outstanding questions for the education field and beyond? What will be needed to take advantage of these new spaces for collaboration and sustainable change?
