Human/Nature
This year’s conference took place on October 14th at WJCT Studios. Its theme was a meditation on not only the incredible richness of being human, but also the intimate relationship between humanity and the natural world. Humanity and nature are not separate — we are interconnected and interdependent. The impact that human actions have on nature is as self evident as the impact nature has on us. We invite you to reflect on both the humanity that unites us, and the planet that sustains us.
