Sharing research posters, papers, or visualisations
on healing-centred systems
Facilitating student action research projects
with local communities
Releasing open knowledge gifts
papers, datasets, or toolkits related to healing

We warmly invite academic institutions to take part in co-creating the intellectual and ethical foundation
of this global movement. Whether through study, dialogue, or contemplative inquiry, academia
has a vital role to play in connecting evidence with empathy, and learning with life.
