Global Public Lecture (10): A Life of Abundance and Joy

Between work, caring for family and chasing one goal after another, many of us find ourselves asking: now that we have more, are we any happier? And how long has it been since we last paused to enjoy the small things in life that bring real contentment?

For the tenth Global Public Lecture, the Global Association of Culture and Education Exchange invited Long Qingchen to speak on “A Life of Abundance and Joy: Enriching the Heart, Delighting in Life”, reflecting together on the relationship between wealth, the inner self and joy, and making a little time for our busy selves. The lecture took place online via Tencent Meeting (VooV Meeting) from 20:00 to 21:30 Beijing/Singapore Time on Saturday 31 October 2026.

Speaker

Long Qingchen: Vice President of the Deli Xinxue Cultural Academy (德礼心学文化书院); cultural lecturer with the Confucius Lecture Hall Foundation (孔子讲堂基金会); Chief Mentor of the “Family Wisdom” (《家道智慧》) programme.

A public-good talk, open to all. May we enjoy the life we are living even as we keep striving forward.
