49th ABS Annual Conference

This presentation shares unique insights into discourses in the scientific and lay communities from a Baháʼí perspective on the issues surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic utilizing the “lessons learned” and highlighting the “missed opportunities” for fostering stronger bonds of unity and global solidarity. This highly interactive presentation, encouraging participation from the audience, explores the implications of the Baháʼí teachings applied to current and future pandemics through relevant discourses in public health, behavioral, and political sciences based on the underlying principle of the agreement between science and religion and the important roles of each of the three protagonists.
