This inspiring broadcast assembles global thought leaders and activists from an important International event “Awakening to Humanity’s Sacred Mission: An International Symposium and Call to Action”.

This uniquely inspired online global event-- available now 24-7 online for ongoing viewing-- was originally suggested by two-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee Ervin Laszlo (from his latest book THE GREAT UPSHIFT) and co—sponsored by a dozen major international impact networks. Some 2500 persons attended.

The event stands out due to its unprecedented global collaboration and its core focus on deep engagement. It serves as a worldwide rallying point for actionable steps and mass mobilization in transformative movements for the greater good. The link for ongoing viewing is: https://unity.earth/symposium-2024-global-broadcast/

The VoiceAmerica broadcast includes Ben Bowler, principal planner of the event, Jon Ramer, host of the event’s interactive sessions and six attendees, Joni Carley, Charles Betterton, Stan Pokras, John Clausen, Kurt Krueger, and David Currie, all of whom, as you can see from their bio’s on the Showpage here, are leaders widely engaged internationally, regionally and locally. This discussant group was gathered from a meeting of thought leaders and activists from The Prosocial Commons of Prosocial.world.

A major take-away from the event was the distilling of key points of unity and activism centering on fourteen essentials we could expect to see if indeed the world is awakening to this vital transformative work. These also summarize the work attendees of the global symposium are dedicated to in “radical collaboration”. They are: Global Collaboration and Peace Initiatives; Reduction in Conflict and Violence; Equitable Distribution of Resources; Sustainable Environmental Practices; Cultural and Social Inclusivity; Global Health; Improvements; Educational Advancement and Access;Technological and Scientific Innovation for Good; Increased Civic Engagement and Participatory Governance; Psychological and Spiritual Growth; Resilience and Adaptability; Art and Creative Expression; Transparency and Accountability in Leadership; and Solidarity Movements and Activism.

This VoiceAmerica Special points to, and shares from, an important international event of the esteemed Galileo Commission, Dec. 29-30, 2023, featuring contributors to the important new book THE GREAT UPSHIFT: HUMANITY’S COMING ADVANCE TOWARD PEACE AND HARMONY ON THE PLANET, “Roadmaps for Planetary Activists” (https://amzn.to/3PklmXB) by two-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee Ervin Laszlo and David Lorimer, Chair of the Galileo Commission.

The Galileo Commission was founded in 2017 to expand the worldview of science. Ninety advisors representing thirty universities worldwide published the well known GALILEO COMMISSION REPORT, which is available in both academic and general public versions: BEYOND A MATERIALIST WORLDVIEW—TOWARDS AN EXPANDED SCIENCE.

Contributors to THE GREAT UPSHIFT agree: We have reached a historic turning point -- a 'point of bifurcation' at which we must find new ways to upshift our individual and collective consciousness to ensure the desired resolution of the world’s crises. The Great Upshift offers roadmaps for all of us to do this.” This vital book is a compendium of insights into solutions for our world, troubled by climate change, conflict, and unsustainable conditions and calls for our conscious participation in universal values of love and care that we all share-- and which point us toward a world that works for all.

David Lorimer cohosts this VoiceAmerica Special, hosting first Ervin Laszlo and then, in order of appearance: Ben Bowler of UNITY EARTH and three time Nautilus Award Winner Dr. Robert Atkinson speaking about this December program and also a February 2024 event with Lazslo, Lorimer and other guests entitled” Awakening to Humanity’s Sacred Mission, An International Symposium and Call to Action”, February 9-11, 2024.

Dr. Julie Krull discusses unity and a unitive narrative with Dr. Jude Currivan, Dr. Robert Atkinson, and Teresa Collins-- leading authorities on unity, wholeness, and the evolution of consciousness and members of the unitive narrative synergy circle of the Evolutionary Leaders (an initiative of the Source of Synergy Foundation). They explore Humanity’s Moment of Choice in these transformative times, as it relates to our understanding of ourselves through story and narrative. From cosmology to direct experience, and from new science to universal wisdom, they discuss the unitive nature of reality and how our living Universe is inviting us to co-create as co-evolutionary partners. This invitation covers everything—from the stories we tell to how we organize ourselves as a species on this precious planet. They explore the WHOLE STORY as we leave behind the epoch of separation and step into the dawning unitive age on our beautiful, conscious planet as fellow Gaians. Dr. Kurt Johnson and the Rev. Deborah Moldow host for VoiceAmerica and the Evolutionary Leaders Circle. Join us for this inspiring and informative program!
