2019 Aurora Dialogues took place in Armenia on October 17 – 21, 2019, during the inaugural Aurora Forum. Distinguished humanitarians, academics, philanthropists, business leaders and members of civil society gathered together to drive positive action across some of the world’s most pressing humanitarian, technological, scientific, educational and social challenges.

The Aurora Dialogues focused on Aurora’s unique approach to localizing impact and how this fits into the overall humanitarian architecture, the milestones achieved since Aurora’s inception, and the goals for the road ahead, as well as on the role education plays in shaping socially responsible individuals.

During the events of the Aurora Dialogues hundreds of people also had an opportunity to meet with the outstanding heroes who are changing our world for the better. Here’s what it was like.
