The conference in Bangkok coincides with the 10th Anniversary of the Right Livelihood College initiative. It will be co-organised by the Right Livelihood Foundation and the Right Livelihood College campus in Bangkok, School for Wellbeing Studies and Research, for which Sulak Sivaraksa (Thailand, Laureate of 1995) is the honorary patron.
The venue of the meeting is Mahachulalongkorn Building Room 105 Chulalongkorn University at 09:00 – 16:30
While celebration the Award’s 40th Anniversary and the Right Livelihood College’s 10th Anniversary the focus will be on the future and Education for Right Livelihood. The meeting wants to strengthen the links between generations and between academia and activism.
During the forthcoming 10 years – between the Right Livelihood Award’s 40th and 50th Anniversaries – the world needs to go through extensive changes with an holistic approach to issues such as climate change, energy and food production, Human Rights, mindful consumption, biodiversity, and distribution of resources – all in the spirit of trusteeship, solutions, ideas and changes that Right Livelihood Award Laureates have been working on and supporting for 40 years and more. How do we best develop and make use of the Right Livelihood Foundation, its Laureates, the Right Livelihood College and other partners in our network to make these changes happen during the next decisive decade? To bridge the possible generation gaps and science with activism, we will aim to bring in both the younger generation and activists working close to Laureates / Laureates’ organisations.
