Zepp-LaRouche Addresses Conference of Asian Scholars on the Subject Of Mahatma Gandhi

Helga Zepp- LaRouche, President of the Schiller Institute, participated in a two-day online International Conference of the Association of Asian Scholars on “Revisiting Gandhi: Peace, Justice and Development.” The conference was held Oct. 30-31, 2020 on the occasion of the celebration of Gandhi’s 150th birthday. Zepp-LaRouche contributed both a longer paper, with the title “Gandhi‘s Vision for a New Paradigm in International Relations, a World Health System and Direct Non-Violent Action in Times of Social Breakdown,” as well as a shorter ten-minute speech followed by Q&A in a panel on “Global Healthcare Challenges & Gandhi.” In her remarks, she was able to present both the idea of a world health system as well as the idea of the Committee for the Coincidence of Opposites. The organizers of the conference expressed that they were very moved by her remarks. The text of Zepp-LaRouche’s speech is included in the Documentation section of this briefing. Her full speech will be published shortly on the Schiller Institute website.
