Themes of the conference

Bahá’u’lláh’s Vision for Humanity

Explore the work of the Bahá’í community in creating vibrant communities that contribute to spiritual and material progress. How can we apply Bahá’u’lláh’s teachings to recognize that the welfare of individuals rests in the welfare of society?

Distance traversed

Building vibrant communities
