Join us for our first 2022 FEZANA Talks Session, which will highlight the way in which Zoroastrianism, perhaps uniquely among the religions of the world, has placed man in harmony with nature through the doctrine of the Amesha Spentas. We will also be going over what Zoroastrians today think about environmental issues according to the landmark global survey, Gen Z and Beyond, which although in its early stages is already producing interesting results.

Date: Saturday February 5th, 2022

Time: 9 AM Pacific | 12 Noon Eastern | 5 PM UK | 10 PM Karachi | 10:30 PM India
