SUMMARY:2026 Right Livelihood International Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Right Livelihood International Conference is a four-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.

SUMMARY:Night of Ideas 2026
DESCRIPTION:Enlightenment\, Now! \nJoin us for a nocturnal celebration of art\, philosophy\, and activism! \nEnlightenment\, Now! \nAs the United States approaches the 250th anniversary of its independence\, the 2026 Santa Cruz Night of Ideas invites us not to celebrate the Enlightenment\, but to interrogate it. Long associated with democracy\, progress\, and universal reason\, the Enlightenment’s legacy remains deeply ambivalent – coexisting with enduring forms of exclusion\, colonial violence\, and economic exploitation. These unresolved tensions\, strikingly visible today\, demand renewed scrutiny. \nRather than treating the Enlightenment as a closed chapter or shared inheritance\, this edition centers young local voices and civil society to ask urgent questions: whose reason matters\, whose freedoms are secured\, and whose futures are denied? \nThrough conversations\, workshops\, performances\, and visionary talks\, Enlightenment\, Now! becomes a space for lived experience and collective experimentation. Featuring contributions from local performers Crista Berryessa and Beati Quorum\, Alex Olwal’s audiovisual collaborations with AL-EK\, and Juan Ospina\, flautist and composer with Olemano\, our event will also bring together Thomas Sage Pedersen\, Ronaldo V. Wilson\, Gina Athena Ulysse\, and many other guests. The aim is not consensus\, but momentum: rethinking progress and imagining new political\, ethical\, and cultural possibilities under radically changed conditions. \nJoin us on Friday\, April 17 at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences to explore what remains of the Enlightenment\, and what it might become! \nThis event is brought to you by the Center for Public Philosophy\, with support from the Institute of the Arts and Sciences\, The Humanities Institute\, the Marc Sanders Foundation\, Villa Albertine\, and the Institut Français. \nLearn more and sign up for updates at nightofideas.org. \nNight of Ideas 2026 Schedule:\nMAIN HALL\n5:00pm: Crista Berryessa and Beati Quorum + introductory remarks by Jeanne Proust\n5:30pm: Thomas Sage Pedersen\, Staying with Discomfort.
