Good Morning everyone. Let me thank the many people who made this Symposium possible, in this new interconnected form.

Throughout history, humanism has been considered a cultural movement that has placed the human being as a central focus.

Good afternoon (or good morning, depending on the time zone)!

Welcome to the 8th International Symposium of the World Centre for Humanist Studies.
