Université de la Terre – March 14 & 15, 2025 : two days to understand and act
In a society looking for bearings, the search for meaning and reconnection with oneself is emerging as a fundamental need. What if altered states of consciousness, such as trance, offered a powerful way of reconnecting with our deepest essence and strengthening our connection to the living?
L’Université de la Terre, inaugurated in November 2005 at UNESCO to mark the 60th anniversary of the United Nations, is a unique gathering in Europe for reflection, sharing and debate to inspire action. It offers two days of discovery and exchange, open to all, on the major challenges facing the planet, the living world and social cohesion.
