This international conference seeks to rediscover and reimagine ecumenism for today’s world. By engaging both new ideas and time-tested models, it aims to renew Christian dialogue in ways that resonate with the digital and globalised age.
In the face of today’s growing conflicts and divisions, we are called once again to make ecumenism a priority for all Christian denominations worldwide, just like churches and theologians did soon after World War II. As in those fraught times, unity and the ethos of true Christianity appear today as existential, post-traumatic necessities, and theology needs to treat them once again as priorities. It is increasingly clear that our current times compel us to rediscover our essential ecumenical drive.
Speakers include:
- Rt Rev Dr Rowan Williams (former Archbishop of Canterbury)
- Prof Paul Murray (Durham University)
- Prof John Milbank (University of Nottingham)
- Sr Dr Vassa Larin (University of Vienna)
- Rev Prof Andrew Louth (Durham University)
- Rev Prof Cyril Hovorun (Huffington Institute, Loyola University)
This will be a two-day conference (5 and 6 December), with five talks per day, between 9 am and 6.30 pm – with coffee breaks in between sessions, and a longer lunch break in the middle.
Talks at this event are expected to be about 30 minutes in length and they will be followed by discussions (involving participants both onsite and online).
