The Spring 2026 Symposium will focus on themes of integral ecology, social impact, and community development. One highlight of the event will be a celebration of 800th anniversary of the "Canticle of Brother Sun" composed by St. Francis of Assisi, which redefines the nature of all relationships: spiritual, human, and with creation. It is an expression of Siena University's commitment to sustainability and integral ecology, following the general theme of "Earth's Cry, Humanity's Call"
