Upcoming Events

AHRC/ESRC Faith Debates
As part of the Religion and Society Programme, and in association with Theos, Linda Woodhead, Charles Clark and Rebecca Catto have organised a series of Faith Debates for Spring 2012. These events are designed for senior civil servants, parliamentarians and journalists, and will cover key topics such as religious identity, faith in schools, radicalisation, welfare, religious freedom, and UK trends in religion and values. For full speaker line-up and further details visit the Faith Debates website. To apply for tickets, email p.ainsworth@lancaster.ac.uk.

 

“I became convinced, particularly when I was Education Secretary and then Home Secretary, that the importance of religion in our national life is insufficiently thought about, insufficiently discussed, insufficiently considered, and it’s critically important for our welfare as a society in a wide variety of ways that we are able to discuss these things in an informed and positive way, and most important of all, on the basis of proper research and understanding of the society of which we are a part.”
 
Charles Clarke
