The Provost Dialogue on the Future is a lecture series about different topics that affect our lives, our global community and our future – designed with a conversational format that produces exchange of ideas for change.

The Provost hosts one every semester to unite members of the University body so that ideas can be birthed and empowered with communication between the educators, scholars, administrators and students.

The event features powerful speakers who are living representations of Lives of Action, and can guide you to become the same. We involve appropriate student organizations in putting on the event, and provide them with the support they need.
