WARSAW – Neufeld Institute Poland Conference

Weaving a Tapestry of Togetherness

 

May 22 – 23, 2025
in-person – Warsaw, Poland
(live stream option available for Day One)


January 15, 2025 update:

We regret to inform you that this two-day event has been cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances. Thank you for your interest.

 

Given the emerging interest in Eastern Europe, we decided to take our annual conference to Warsaw this year. The conference will be hosted by our Polish Neufeld team under the direction of our Polish Language Director, Joanna Bylinka. If you live in North America and have been looking for an excuse to travel to Europe, hopefully this will provide the needed nudge.

Presenters: Gordon Neufeld, Tamara Strijack and Deborah MacNamara will be joined by some of our European faculty – Jule Epp from Berlin, Joanna Bylinka from Poland, and Urška Žugelj from Slovenia. Gordon, Tamara, and Deborah will be coming to Warsaw from Prague where they are guest speakers at an international congress on healing from May 16-18.

Format: The conference is divided into Day One and Day Two, both registered for separately.
