Join us for the 21st Frank K. Kelly Lecture on Humanity’s Future on Tuesday, April 7, 2026, from 6:00 to 7:45 PM at the Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara. This year’s lecture will be delivered by Professor Richard Falk and will examine the legal, moral, and political challenges shaping humanity’s future in an age of conflict, nuclear weapons, and global instability.
Richard Falk is Albert G. Milbank Professor Emeritus of International Law at Princeton University and a leading scholar of international law and global governance. He previously served as United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories and has written extensively on nuclear weapons, human rights, and world order.
The Frank K. Kelly Lecture on Humanity’s Future was established by the Nuclear Age Peace Foundation in 2002 to honor the vision of its founder, Frank K. Kelly. Each year, the lecture brings a distinguished speaker to reflect on humanity’s present circumstances and the paths toward a more just and secure future.
