Today I published an op-ed in @TIME on the science of forgiveness, one of @TempletonWorld's top priorities.

Over 50 studies support the power of forgiveness, a kind of psychological alchemy that can help us turn the emotional "garbage" of 2020 into gold.

And @Zain_Verjee, thank you for asking the right questions and allowing us to consider what role forgiveness may play in our personal and collective lives in 2020 and beyond. #ForgivenessForum 2/2

[Andrew Serazin @aserazin]

In 2020, maybe now more than ever, we need to shift the conversation away from blame and vengeance, and toward healing, hope, and flourishing. #Forgiveness is a science-driven tool that enables us to do so. https://t.co/VmC7CGXhYo

[The Elders @TheElders]

Nobel Peace Prize winner, @JuanManSantos, will join two former UN High Commissioners for Human Rights, Mary Robinson and @raad_zeid, to discuss the power of #forgiveness, empathy and hope. 10am ET/3pm GMT, 16 December.
