The Brahma Kumaris Global Retreat Center – WHO ARE WE?

We’re a multi-cultural community of individuals – a wonderful mixture of backgrounds, ages and life experiences – and we celebrate that diversity.
That’s because we recognise that any organisation that is inclusive in terms of age, gender, race, ability and perspective is stronger and of greater value to its members and to the various communities it serves.
