Satish Kumar

Satish Kumar, Peace-pilgrim, life-long activist and former monk, Satish Kumar has been inspiring global change for over 50 years. Aged 9, Satish renounced the world and joined the wandering Jain monks. Inspired by Gandhi, he decided at 18 that he could achieve more back in the world and soon undertook a peace pilgrimage, walking without money from India to America in the name of nuclear disarmament. Now in his 80s, Satish has devoted his life to campaigning for ecological regeneration, social justice and spiritual fulfilment. Satish founded Schumacher College as well as The Resurgence Trust, an educational charity that seeks a just future for all.

Satish will be speaking at the Universal Spirituality & Humanity Foundation’s Reconnecting with Nature event on Thursday 21st October from 12.00 to 13.30 BST (UTC/GMT+1) which is 16.30 to 18.00 IST. Click here for more information and click here to join the event.
