With stress and anxiety related disorders, obesity and hypertension on the rise in both developed and developing countries, we are in need of a holistic health intervention - one that covers everything from sourcing real food to cultivating health and vitality to creating empowered lifestyles – for all people.
Cultivating holistic health – mental, physical, emotional and spiritual - is about understanding the impact we have on our health and the health of others around us - plants, animals and our communities and combining ancient methods and new technology to creating a culture that invests in and supports a holistic way of being and living - in body, mind and spirit.

Housing, Social Justice & Olympics: Global Legacy, Local Futures
The city of Rio de Janeiro has spent billions in anticipation for upcoming mega-events. This spending is called “Building the City” by many, but unfortunately has been largely done without prioritizing the needs of Rio’s citizens. While this has been felt throughout the city and across socio-economic lines, the most devastating outcome of this “Building the City” has been widespread housing removals and destruction of many favela communities. In some instances, the government has offered alternative housing for families. While this can be seen in a positive light, it does not address the real issue here: the collapse of communities in which experiences and memories are created, and through which people identify themselves.
Being outside of the formal sector, people living in favelas have constructed their houses, their surroundings, their realities, and their communities themselves, together, for themselves and for each other. That is not something that can be recreated by a social program. To tear these communities apart is to violate the human rights of those who created and are living in them. It is urgent that these violations be addressed, not just for the sake of those who face removal, but also for the integrity of the city as a whole.
Join this timely discusson as new voices are heard and we seach for integrity moving forward.
Many more voices will be heard in the session.

What are we made of? Our Watersheds & Ocean Ecosystems
In many traditional cultures, water is at the source of our symbiotic connection with our Mother Earth.
Indigenous stewards of our watersheds have tended to the cycles of regeneration through the generations and when necessary, in times of impending crisis, become the voice of Gaia herself.
This panel features passionate local stewards, and visionary leaders at the forefront of science.
This is both a grassroots movement and a transformation of our essential cultural narratives.
How can we both seed a vital future for generations to come and reclaim our essential connection to Mother Earth which is our vital human birthright?
From on the ground resilence from national leader in disaster risk assesment, George Pimentel of CPRM, we'll trancend and shift to a conversation about community resilience.
