The regional hearth summit bangladesh
Join youth, educators and parents as we embark on a journey of Connecting Generations for Wellbeing and Growth at the Hearth Summit Bangladesh
Connecting Generations For Wellbeing and Growth
To bridge a crucial gap in understanding the relationship between trauma, wellbeing, and social change, Hearth Summit Bangladesh (Dhaka Edition) aims to transform vicious cycles of intergenerational trauma (IGT) into virtuous cycles of intergenerational wellbeing in practice.
The event will expand awareness of trauma’s impact, historical context, and personal connection—illuminating patterns of perpetuation while recognizing resilience, strengths, and pathways toward healing and transformation. Participants will gain the confidence to use their voice and shape their own narrative uniquely.
This event offers new ways of healing, wellbeing, and thriving in order to promote intergenerational wellbeing, as opposed to intergenerational trauma.
