Event Description

Social transformation is the process of large scale change for an environment where a shift occurs in the consciousness, in attitudes and values of a community or society – local, state, national or global – so that these are held in a completely new context (or paradigm) based upon different assumptions and beliefs. Scientific discoveries have triggered many social transformations throughout our history as have religious movements such as the great awakening of New England and governmental policy such as the end of apartheid in South Africa in 1994. Social transformation also includes a shift in attitudes and values that are held in a completely new context (or paradigm) based upon different assumptions and beliefs. Faith-Based Social Transformation is the process of positively changing an environment for the better using faith-based principles.

We have invited a number of prominent faith-based leaders to discuss how faith-based social transformation efforts are changing our society. This will be a groundbreaking event that promises to be a significant catalyst towards inspiring renewal and transformation of not only the Harvard student body but of the larger Boston and New England region. This conference will be one of the firsts of its kind where leading voices for the faith-based social transformation of culture and nations will bring the relevance of God’s purpose and power to the students at Harvard consistent with the founding purpose of the university.
