Unit 1: The Nature of Our Contributions

Participants touch on the history of the Faith’s involvement in public discourse, before exploring the nature of contributions to public discourse informed by Bahá’í teachings. Approaches to assessing views and theories that speak to the issues under consideration are discussed, as is the importance of a deep commitment to the eradication of prejudice in all its manifestations if truth is to be investigated.
