Webinar – Conflict Culture & Democracy (Saturdays)

November 14, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am EST

This is the fifth DemoSapiens webinar series that is co-sponsored by Mediators Beyond Borders International (MBBI) and the Millennium Alliance of Humanity and the Biosphere (Stanford University). It is led by Ashok Panikkar of MetaCulture.

It is a 12-part Conflict, Culture & Democracy Course. It will be held weekly on Wednesday at 10 AM ET (-4 UTC). Each session will be 90 minutes long. The first session is scheduled for Saturday, November 14, 2020, at 10 AM EST and the twelfth session is scheduled for Saturday, February 6, 2021, at 10 AM EST. We will skip the session on December 26, 2020.

This course is designed to help participants place the current global crisis of democracy within the larger (and complex) context. Navigating this unprecedented political, ecological, economic, and cultural crisis will depend upon our capacity to understand: (a) How we got here. (b) The interlocking forces that are in play today (c) What history can teach us about human successes and limitations in addressing complex problems.

Each session will seek to develop a discourse around democracy, politics, and culture that can be well-informed, thoughtful, and mature- rather than reactive, angry, wistful, or riddled with assumptions.

Please note that the pricing for the Demo Sapiens Webinar Series is different than MBBI’s monthly webinars. Participants are paying for a 12-part series co-sponsored by MBBI, Meta-Culture, and the Millennium Alliance of Humanity and the Biosphere. If participants register for this series by November 10th, they can pay a discounted rate.
