The Law Department of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) is pleased to announce its third annual Global Law Conference, which will be held from May 19 to May 22, 2023, at Bhaktivedanta Manor near London, UK. The Conference will address critical legal issues encountered by ISKCON and the worldwide community of devotees and friends of Krishna.
The ISKCON 2023 Global Law Conference will bring together devotee-attorneys and legally minded devotees and friends of Krishna from around the world. Devotees will share experiences and brainstorm best practices to utilize legal principles to protect, improve, and strengthen ISKCON. Some of the anticipated topics for discussion include dispute resolution, child protection, real property oversight, reputational management, and non-profit governance.
At the first annual ISKCON Global Law Conference held in Florida in 2020, devotees from 21 countries were represented. This year, the conference is being held in the United Kingdom, where common law originated. Our distinguished devotee participants from around the globe will unite to share their insights and expertise. In doing so, they will also venerate ISKCON Founder Acharya His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Srila Prabhupada, and the significance he attributed to using the law to advance Krishna consciousness.
The ISKCON 2023 Global Law Conference will “inspire and motivate devotee-attorneys to serve and improve ISKCON in all spheres, making its core stronger and sustainable,” said His Grace Devakinandan Das, ISKCON General Counsel. “We have many attorneys and other legally minded devotees assisting them in their work. Established by GBC Body in 2018, the ISKCON Law Department harnesses today the talents of so many.”
