SUMMARY:Festival of Compassion
DESCRIPTION:Compassion is one of US Values Alliance Top 6 Values we want to see more of in 2025 \nTo that end\, we want to share our ally Global Compassion Coalition’s event: \nFestival of Compassion Launches in Cape Town: A Global Call to Come Home \nWhat happens when a world in crisis remembers to care? \nThis is the question at the heart of the first-ever Festival of Compassion\, taking place from\n10–12 September 2025 in Cape Town\, South Africa. \nHosted by the Global Compassion Coalition (GCC)\, this flagship gathering is unique: a lived journey inviting people to explore\ncompassion not as a soft sentiment\, but as a radical\, embodied force for public good. \nHeld under the theme “Come Home”\, the festival invites participants into a collective\nhomecoming\, returning to self\, community\, and planet. Moving beyond a conventional\nconference\, the Festival will co-create a space for shared grief\, joy\, and action through rituals\,\nteachings\, and workshops. \n“Compassion reflects the wisdom that everything is related to everything else\, and it naturally\ndraws you into feeling more connected with all things. It draws us into relationships of care\,”\nsays Rick Hanson\, Founder and President of the Global Compassion Coalition. “It belongs in\nour schools\, in government\, in business\, in how we care for each other and for the planet we\nshare. This festival is about remembering that\, and inspiring action.” \nCurating the festival programme is Fadia Williams\, who draws on a wellspring of knowledge\nand experience in designing meaningful engagements: “We don’t need more information – we\nneed transformation. And transformation happens when we slow down enough to feel\, to\nwitness\, and to act with heart. That’s the invitation of this festival.” \nDesigned to resonate with a wide community of thinkers and doers\, the Festival will appeal to\nacademics\, activists\, artists\, and practitioners across justice\, wellbeing\, trauma healing\,\nreconciliation\, and community leadership spaces. It brings together a diverse circle of global\nand local voices committed to building more compassionate systems\, communities\, and\npersonal practices. \nWhile the Festival convenes participants in Cape Town\, an online component will extend the\nexperience worldwide\, for those unable to travel and for those wishing to join from afar\, making\nthe circle of compassion and community bigger\, more accessible\, and truly global. \nDate: 10-12 September 2025\nTime: 09:00-16:30\nVenue: UCT GSB Academic Conference Centre\, 9 Portswood Rd\, Victoria & Alfred Waterfront\,\nCape Town \nwww.festivalofcompassion.com \n

SUMMARY:American Values at 250 - Part Two
DESCRIPTION:In session one\, we looked at the values expressed by the founders in 1776. \nEach person then contributed one value they think is important for the future of our democracy. \n  \nWe will look at the words offered on March 17 and have a juicy discussion about how to select the values that best represent our desires. \nHere are the words that were offered that day: \n\nDemocracy – inclusive\, fair\, balanced\nEducation – Lifelong learning\, intention for people to expand who they are\, necessary for self governance\nStewardship – Care for animals\, earth\, water\, each other\, collective\nCourage – to stand up when difficult\nKindness\nAction\nCharacter\nIntegrity – Aligned with self\nParticipation – A sense of expectation to participate\n\nWhat values might be missing? \nAre there any values you object to? \nHow would you publicize and socialize these values? \nCome for a casual and thoughtful discussion on Wed\, May 20 at 9am Pacific. \n  \nSign up HERE

SUMMARY:Discussion - Is Kindness an Important American Value
DESCRIPTION:As the USA approaches its 250th anniversary\, this event offers an opportunity not only to reflect on the past\, but to explore the role kindness can play in shaping the next 250 years. \nAt a time of growing division\, disconnection\, and global challenge\, kindness has the power to strengthen communities\, build understanding\, restore trust\, and create positive ripple effects across society. More than an individual act\, kindness can be seen as a practical force for leadership\, collaboration\, wellbeing\, and social progress. \nThrough inspiring stories\, dialogue\, and shared experiences\, the session will explore a simple but powerful idea: \n“What if kindness is one of the keys to the next 250 years?” \nParticipants will be invited to consider how small actions\, human connection\, and compassionate leadership can help shape a more hopeful future for communities\, organisations\, and generations to come. \n  \nSign up HERE \nHosted by K20 Summit Cofounders – Maria Roca\, Francesca Donlan\, Jenny Haase and Alan Williams
