The speakers were selected for their specialty areas which range from science, history, education, psychology, and anthropology. The purpose of the conference and accompanying books is to bring to a wider audience an awareness of “first ways,” what we know about their effects on flourishing and how to integrate them into modern life for global flourishing. Submit a short abstract (150 words) and a long abstract (up to 500 words) to Gene Halton <[email protected]> by August 1, 2016. Please include your name, address and email.
