Eco-Spirituality/ Faith, Spirituality and Social Change Conference

University College, Winchester
April 14th 2007

A conference bringing together people whose action for social change is informed by their faith, organisations working with faith communities for social change, and academics exploring faith-based social change issues.

This conference invites discussion about the dynamic dimensions of inter-faith dialogue, and multi-faith action across a range of social change issues. Opening the debate to include academic perspectives and grass-roots voices will allow for broader conversations about the current state and future direction of faith-based social change.

We invite proposals for posters, 20 minute papers or 30 minutes workshops in the context of faith-based social change which broadly address any of the following themes:-

Ecology and/or Environment
Gender and/or Sexuality
Education formal and/or faith-based
Cultural dimensions - including music, art, literature
Social Protest
World Development and/or Social Regeneration
Lifestyle as Protest

Proposals in the form of a title, a short abstract (300 words max) and a brief biographical statement (100 words plus affiliation) should be sent by 1 Dec 06 to: Dr Christina Welch or Adrian Harris at fssc@winchester.ac.uk

Speakers, papers and a provisional programme will be posted on the conference web site as soon as they become available.
