On Feb. 25 and 26, scholars and thought leaders from a broad range of disciplines gathered at Pacific Lutheran University (PLU) to explore the concept of “resilience” during the seventh biennial annual Wang Center Symposium, titled “The Countenance of Hope: Towards an Interdisciplinary and Cross-Cultural Understanding of Resilience.”
The two-day conference was keynoted by award-winning scholar, anti-globalization author, and environmental activist Vandana Shiva.
The Wang Center for Global Education, made possible by a gift from Grace and Peter Wang, is an academic support unit dedicated to providing faculty, students, and staff with the resources necessary to a just, healthy, sustainable and peaceful world at home and abroad. (end)
