Our programme of seminars, lectures, conferences, workshops, publications, research networks, international collaborations and educational events has lasting impact around the world.

Our work mines the theological, philosophical and ethical traditions of the world’s largest and most global religious tradition to address the pressing issues of our world and its future.
