One Planet, One Habitation: Recasting Humanity’s Relationship with the Natural World

August 20, 2023, in Videos > Talk, by

This video, shared generously by the Association for Baha’i Studies for North America, features a talk from the 2023 ABS conference in Atlanta (USA) with Dan Perell and Yvette Allen from the Baha’i International Community’s Office of the United Nations. They share how the movement around climate and the environment could serve as a catalyst for global cooperation. In consultation with collaborators, the BIC has been exploring a number of contributions to the discourse, which have more recently been distilled in a statement titled One Planet, One Habitation: A Baha’i Perspective on Recasting Humanity’s Relationship with the Natural World.

More talks from various ABS conferences held over the years can be watched online.
