Spirit of Humanity Forum

The Spirit of Humanity Forum is a global network of organizations, communities and individuals committed to help bring about change in governance and decision-making, based on core human values. The Forum aims to do so by providing spaces for dialogue, listening, contemplation and experience. Participants are encouraged to share, inspire and be inspired, and to collaborate in pursuit of harmony in their personal, communal and political lives.

The 7th Spirit of Humanity Forum took place in Iceland from 7–11 May 2025, convening an international group of leaders and change-makers under the theme “Inner Wisdom in Governance and Leadership – Acting with Courage and Compassion.” The Forum combined plenary dialogues and interactive sessions with a retreat-style format grounded in its core pillars of silence, listening and dialogue, and it co-hosted several sessions in collaboration with the Wellbeing Economy Forum.
