SUMMARY:2026 Right Livelihood International Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Right Livelihood International Conference is a five-week global conference exploring how education can strengthen democracy\, collective intelligence\, and just futures. Bringing together Right Livelihood Laureates\, students\, faculty\, and community partners across continents\, the conference combines asynchronous learning with participatory dialogue and collaborative action. Rather than advocating specific outcomes\, the conference positions education as a democratic practice and the Right Livelihood College as a steward of dialogue\, student voice\, and long-term institutional learning. \nRegistration is free and open to the public. Sign up to receive conference updates\, session links\, and participation opportunities.

Together\, they will engage in a conversation on movement-building across generations\, the importance of mentorship\, and what it means to lead with purpose in today’s social justice landscape. \nThis evening is an invitation to connect the past with the present\, honor the shoulders we stand on\, and imagine the future we are called to build together. \n\nFor questions or accommodations\, please email elcentro@ucsc.edu. \n\n\nParking and Check-in: Parking is available via ParkMobile at Parking Lot 119. ADA parking is available at Parking Lot 119 with an ADA placard.
