Europe in Transition - Identity · Values · Hope
Seminar with Dr. Vishal Mangalwadi on February 21, 2026
Vishal Mangalwadi brings up what many feel, but hardly anyone dares to say
Europe is undergoing profound changes – due to migration, new questions of identity and social upheavals. These developments challenge us. But the real problem is not the change itself, but that we are less and less sure of our own values and identity. This makes it difficult for us to react with clarity, hope and self-confidence. Many are insecure and wrestle with fundamental questions: Who are we? What do we believe? How can we live credibly today?
This seminar helps to understand the deeper causes of our current challenges and to rediscover our spiritual identity. It invites us to rediscover the values that have shaped Europe. The seminar helps to deal with current questions about gender issues and change in our culture
Together, we are looking for positive and constructive ways to actively shape our rapidly changing world – firmly rooted in the truth. The seminar provides orientation, hope and practical impulses to go into the future with confidence instead of fear.
