Announcing Conference to Restore Humanity! 2025: Quest for Connection (July 21-23, 2025). In 2025, we’re responding to the need for community and solidarity in uncertain times by turning Conference to Restore Humanity into a model for humanizing critical discourse and dialogue: bringing together students and teachers, researchers and doers, thinkers and visionaries to explore complex topics in education and illuminate a path forward together.
We are working with young people, educators, and schools to design engaging communities by...
creating purposeful, community spaces.
advocating for social justice.
eliminating dehumanizing practices.
building spaces that value us as humans.
