The Tounché Global Consciousness Summit 2025 is dedicated to the presence and wisdom of elders. In our time, youth is celebrated while elders are often set aside, their voices muted, their presence hidden. Many of us carry wounds from family and lineage, and in the urgency of our healing we have distanced ourselves from those who came before us. This distancing has created a silence around elders that weakens the fabric of our collective life.
In many traditions, elders are honored as living bearers of wisdom. Their gift is not found in perfection but in experience, in the stories they hold, and in the perspective that time allows. They are our living ancestors, flawed and luminous, broken and wise, carrying both their struggles and their treasures. To honor them is to step into compassion, to see their humanity with tenderness, to accept what they could not heal, and to receive what they can still give.
This year’s Summit is a space to bring elders back into view. It is a celebration of their lives and their voices, an act of listening, and a recovery of respect. It is also a practice of humility, learning to sit with the paradox of honoring wisdom while embracing imperfection. By doing so, we enter into deeper healing, not only of our past, but of our present relationships with those who are still here.
When the Elders Speak is an invitation to listen, to learn, and to honor. It is a call to restore the balance between generations, to recognize elders as essential to the health of communities, and to celebrate the wisdom that lives among us now.

“Eldering is the conscious, ongoing practice of stepping into the role of an Elder, not simply by virtue of age, but by cultivating wisdom, presence, and service to the greater whole. It is a journey of listening deeply to life, integrating one’s experiences, and offering guidance not as authority but as stewardship for future generations. Eldering shifts the center of gravity from personal ambition or legacy to a wider horizon that embraces community, Earth, and descendants yet to come.”
