Summary
The aim of the conference series is to bring together the Nordic scholars within systematic theology triannually. The expected outcome of this 20th conference is the rethinking of what has been coined Scandinavian creation theology after figures like Grundtvig, Løgstrup, Prenter, and Wingren (the latter Swedish). This conference will address themes such as climate change, climate justice, migration, corona, and vulnerability from a theological, philosophical, and ethical perspective in order to address burning issues for our societies. The conference has the support and supervision of PhD-projects as a key objective.
