About MBSR:Jon Kabat-Zinn, founder of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), has spent over 40 years bringing evidence-based mindfulness into healthcare. His work has transformed how professionals understand stress, suffering, and emotional regulation. Today, hospitals, universities, schools, and organizations worldwide use mindfulness to support resilience and well-being. At this conference, he’ll reflect on what it means to stay present amid complexity and how mindfulness can help manage emotional and professional overload.

Hi Community we continue our journey where we're reverse engineering the real value and outcomes for clients if and when they work on their inner development. This time we're looking at the dimension of the THINKING skills. 👉 Here is the Google Doc to add your reflections about the real client outcome for the IDG skills under the 'Thinking' dimension If we can get some first insights before Tuesdays hangout, we can discuss them again next Tuesday, 12.30pm I found this lovely image about the concept of language on LinkedIn, and Sandra kindly gave me permission to share it. I think it expresses so well what we're working on in this Client Value Challenge. *** Other posts in the community: - IDG is growing up - and we're invited to co-create what's next - Reverse-engineering the BEING skills - Building a new kind of economy - International Women's Day event We'd love to have you engage in the conversations here.

The LearningPlanet Festival was first launched in 2020 in partnership with UNESCO. Since then, it has been organised each January to celebrate the International Day of Education, and has grown into a global movement uniting hundreds of thousands of participants from 193 countries. The goal of the LearningPlanet Festival is to foster a global movement and open coalition of diverse stakeholders — youth, educators, organisations, and changemakers — to reimagine the future of learning. It provides a platform to explore, share, and co-create innovative educational models that empower individuals and communities to take care of themselves, others, and the planet. Through dialogue and collaboration, the Festival aims to inspire action around key challenges such as education, youth leadership, well-being, equity, peace, technology, and planetary futures. Since 2006, the Learning Planet Institute has been dedicated to reinventing learning for all ages (lifelong learning) through collective intelligence in order to build sustainable & inclusive learning societies able to rise to the complex challenges we face. The Institute’s mission is to explore, research and share new ways of learning and cooperating in order to respond to the needs of the youth and the planet. By encouraging and disseminating a culture, methods and tools for empowerment, it transforms organisations. Ultimately, it leads communities and supports “Learning Planetizens” to take care of themselves, others and the planet. In 2025 InnerDevelopment@Work hosted the online workshop "What are the IDGs?" 👉In 2026 we plan to host a workshop entitled "Inner Skills for Planetary Impact: Youth & Educators Leading the Change" every other day during the festival at different times. If you are interested in co-facilitating this session OR co-creating a different topic drop a comment below between now and Monday November 10th.
