successes

• The mandatory participant orientation was useful. 

• The venue, the Louis-Bourgeois Bahá'í Centre, was perfect.

• There was a strong social component in this socially-oriented conference

• People were given ample time to interact with others and there were plenty of social hangout spots for conversing.

• Venerable Bahá'í notables Counselor David Smith and National Spiritual Assembly member Gordon Naylor illumined the conference.

• Farzin Davachi's talk on personally convincing Heads of State around the world to adopt moral education classes as a means of bettering their society was inspirational
