First annual Wisdom 2.0 Youth Conference this weekend
This year's offered some great conferences—among them Wisdom 2.0, and the impending Creating a Mindful Society in New York. Next up? The First Annual Wisdom 2.0 Youth conference, which starts tomorrow, September 17, in Silicon Valley.
Put together by the fine folks who made Wisdom 2.0 such a success, Wisdom 2.0 Youth asks two key questions:
“How do we support the ‘inner technologies’ of wisdom, mindfulness, and compassion in young people in an increasingly technology-saturated age?”
And,
“How do we find our own balance and embody the qualities we most want to pass to young people in our lives?”
Present at the conference will be Daniel Siegel, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at UCLA School of Medicine; Susan Kaiser Greenland, author of The Mindful Child; Google’s Jolly Good Fellow Chade-Meng Tan; Zynga co-founder Eric Schiermeyer; Megan Cowan, co-Founder of Mindful Schools; Gina Biegel, “On Teen Life” blogger for Mindful.org; high school students Meghan Byrd, Malaika Ramachandran, and Maddi Siegel, among others.
