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
