- Some 1,400 delegates from more than 170 countries have arrived in Haifa to participate in the International Bahá’í Convention, an unparalleled gathering that takes place every five years at the administrative and spiritual center of the worldwide Bahá’í community.
During the International Convention, these delegates, who represent a cross-section of humanity, will participate in consultative sessions and elect the international governing body of the Bahá’í Faith, the Universal House of Justice.
Consultations will explore how the worldwide Bahá’í community can intensify its efforts to contribute to humanity’s movement toward peace. These efforts involve educational programs that build capacity for community-building, as well as social action and participation in societal discourses.
The delegates who attend the International Convention are members of the annually elected national Bahá’í governing councils of their countries. These institutions, referred to as National Spiritual Assemblies, stimulate, guide, and support the activities of the Bahá’í community within their respective jurisdictions.
The Convention runs from 29 April to 2 May. On the opening day, the delegates will gather to elect the nine members of the Universal House of Justice for a five-year term.

I’m curious why everyone is still wearing masks. Was that a requirement? And what about vaccines, are they required? Is so, by the World Centre or by the local authorities?
The pandemic is not fully over globally. Also, cold viruses are everywhere.
It’s good to be cautious!
You know well that life for Bahá’í would not be very nice under Palestinian rule.
