Meeting Brno 2024: From Trauma to Hope

The next edition of the Meeting Brno festival brought a series of events in which we not only reflected on the past but also, through the theme "From Trauma to Hope," helped the audience come to terms with difficult life and historical events.

The opening ceremony was attended by world-renowned Syrian doctor and trauma healing coach Rola Hallam, one of the most prominent figures of the Czech YouTube scene Karel “Kovy” Kovář, philosopher Alice Koubová, and social educator Marcela Murgašová. We also premiered the play Benešovi, written by author Markéta Špetíková at the request of the Meeting Brno festival.

In 2024, in addition to discussions, walks, theatre plays, exhibitions, and the traditional Reconciliation Pilgrimage, we also offered a series of therapeutic workshops, providing the audience with a path to process both historical and personal traumas.
