In the mid-20th century, psychologists Joan and Erik Erikson proposed a theory of psychosocial development that outlined eight distinct stages of life, each stage having a central conflict, the resolution of which would set the stage for the next phase of life. However, experience proves that our lives often cannot be subdivided into neat stages, and that each season grants us the opportunity to reflect on our legacy as it is and as we want it to be.

In the 2024-2025 of Agora, we hope to explore the legacies that we carry as we move through life.  What meaning do you find in the legacies of the people who came before you? What experiences have shaped your dreams into something uniquely your own, and how has that changed over the course of your life? What do you hope survives of you, beyond you?
