The University for Peace — created by the United Nations General Assembly and set in the forested hills of Ciudad Colon — has opened its international Call for Speakers for the 2027 Gross Global Happiness Summit.
The Summit runs March 12–14, 2027 on the UPEACE campus and draws roughly 150 people from around the world: coaches, educators, psychologists, NGO and business leaders, social innovators. Past keynotes have included Robert Waldinger, Sonja Lyubomirsky, Tal Ben-Shahar and Robin Stern.
You don't need a research chair to apply. Organizers are asking for an idea, a story, a practice or an experience — delivered as a workshop, a facilitated conversation, a piece of storytelling or something more experiential.

Proposals are reviewed on a rolling basis and spaces are limited. Who they're looking for, what the Summit is actually like, and how to put your name in — it's all in the full story.
This message was produced in partnership with the UPEACE Centre for Executive Education.
