Engage in profound conversations around the WHO theme, “Mental Health is a Universal Human Right.” Our event features two remarkable authors: Jeremy Nobel, author of ‘Project Unlonely,’ discussing ‘Healing Our Crisis of Disconnection,’ and Michele Lamont, author of ‘Seeing Others,’ shedding light on ‘How Recognition Works and How it Can Help Heal a Divided World.’

Following these thought-provoking talks, immerse yourself in ‘The Listener,’ a compelling film that addresses the pressing issues of brokenness and loneliness, introduced by the director himself, Steve Buscemi. Afterward, don’t miss our insightful panel discussion moderated by Dr. Barbara Van Dahlen, the CEO of WeBe Life foundation, with Dr. Vikram Patel, Chair of the Department of Global Health and Social Medicine at Harvard Medical School and Steve Buscemi.

Stay tuned for registration details, as we look forward to your participation in this impactful event.
