Intro
After the successful N2 conference at UC Berkeley on ‘The Noosphere: the future of human collective consciousness’ in 2023, CLEA is now co-organizing a follow-up N2 conference ‘The Noosphere & the Global South’. The gathering takes place from December 16-18, 2024 at the futuristic campus of the UM6P university in Morocco, dedicated to the sustainable development of Africa.

The N2 Conference 2024 is the second edition of the prestigious N2 Conference launched by Human Energy at the University of California Berkeley in 2023. Each N2 conference looks to deepen our present understanding and future vision for the noosphere. This international, interdisciplinary conference brings together leading scientists, scholars from across the disciplines, thought leaders, creative artists, and all those who are interested in the meaning and possibility of the noosphere for our collective future.
The N2 2024 Conference on the Noosphere & the Global South will be a highly participatory and collaborative event, with short, feature presentations from an impressive slate of invited speakers (*), an interactive exhibit of selected posters, and ample time for mutual engagement and discussion. N2 is an in-person conference with opportunities for remote participation. All presentations will be live-streamed for open access. Virtual registration will give viewers up-to-date information about the program and related resources.
(*) such as Kevin Kelly, Ben Goertzel, Ilia Delio, Robert Wright, Robert Lawrence Kuhn, and many more, as well as Human-Energy-affiliated scientists such as Terrence Deacon, Francis Heylighen, Gregory Stock, Brian Swimme, and David Sloan Wilson. We encourage you to check out the brief N2 2023 “overview” video and this additional short “interviews and insights” video, where you’ll hear some of these speakers, and others, attest to the high quality and value of the original conference.
The team welcomes all those interested in the noosphere and the promise of human collective consciousness to attend, and we invite proposals for presentations that speak to the conference themes, outlined here.
The N2 Conference is sponsored by Human Energy, a non-profit research, media, and educational organization dedicated to introducing the noosphere as a Third Story of the universe that can provide a source of meaning and hope for future generations.
