The Angkor Convergence

The Angkor Convergence is a seven-night wellness retreat at Angkor Grace Wellness Resort in Siem Reap, Cambodia, hosted by UNITY EARTH and World Weavers. It is designed for peacebuilders and changemakers who want time for renewal and for working alongside others, set against the temples of Angkor.

What to Expect

The week brings together four threads: sacred temple pilgrimages, renewal, wellness and collaboration. The pilgrimages to the temples around Siem Reap are central to the gathering, and the resort's wellness setting offers the space to rest between them. The collaborative side matters as much as the restorative one. This is a retreat for people who work in peace and change-making, and who benefit from meeting one another in a quiet, unhurried environment.

The gathering runs seven nights. A detailed day-by-day schedule and session times are not set out here, so expect a mix of outings to the temples, time for personal renewal and shared work with fellow participants.

Hosts

UNITY EARTH and World Weavers jointly host The Angkor Convergence. They are the organizations behind the gathering, which is aimed at those engaged in peacebuilding and community change.

The Setting

Angkor Grace Wellness Resort sits in Siem Reap, Cambodia, the town closest to the Angkor temple complex. The resort describes itself as an oasis in the heart of Siem Reap, and it regularly hosts wellness retreats, including yoga, meditation, sound and healing programmes. The Convergence is held within this retreat-oriented environment, with the temples of Angkor as the focus of the pilgrimage days.

Before You Go

The Angkor Convergence is intended for peacebuilders and changemakers, so it suits people who are already active in that kind of work or who are drawn to it. Anyone considering the retreat should confirm specifics such as what is included in the stay, meals and transport with the hosts before planning travel.
