The 2025 Advancing Together Symposium will focus on the Narratives of America, supporting a growing community of discourse on this topic by providing a space to connect, generate and share ideas, and consider how the stories we create apply to the work we do. 

How can we create narratives that are just, honest, inclusive and forward-looking? How do such narratives shape our other efforts for social transformation, whether at the level of language and discourse or at the level of action? What can we do to elevate the conversation about the story of our country as we approach a key 250th anniversary of its founding?

In 2021 the US Baha'i Office of Public Affairs convened its first Advancing Together Symposium, entitled Forging a Path Toward a Just, Inclusive and Unified Society. It commemorated the 100th anniversary of the first race amity conference hosted by the Baha'i community.
