Taking this as a foundational question, this Forum of the MIT Global Humanities Intitiative is devoted to bringing greater clarity and honesty into our understandings of belief, reason, and human discovery in all its myriad dimensions. Hosted by the MIT Pillar on ‘The Good Life’, the Forum outlines the challenges facing our endeavor, discusses and debates diverse conceptions of the good life stemming from several of the world’s intellectual traditions and devotional practices, explores the experiential potential of engaged scholarship in the first-person, and proposes ways to harvest the meaning-making potentials of religions, philosophies, and sciences in the service of more cosmopolitan modes of inter-personal, inter-communal, and inter-religious human flourishing.Looking forward to seeing you at our events!The GHI Team————————JOIN OUR MAILING LIST (LINK) to get the latest announcements about our programs, and registration links!MIT Global Humanities Initiative Spring Events 2025GHI FORUM SERIES1st GHI ForumTitle: Cognition, Learning & Human FlourishingDate: February 21, 8:00–9:30 AM ESTSpeakers: Jonas Mago, Justus Wachs2nd GHI ForumTitle: The Good Life: Religions, Philosophies & SciencesDate: April 11, 10:00–11:30 AM EDTSpeakers: Rafal K.
