Emily Brennan
Date: Thursday, February 14, 9:00am-7:00pm; Friday, February 15,
9:30am-12:30pm
Location: Kellogg Center, International Affairs Building, Room 1501
Chaired and organized by Elazar Barkan, Professor of International and
Public Affairs, this conference intends to focus on the role of sites
and spaces that are significant to more than one religion and on the
ways these religions engage each other in order to overcome and resolve
conflict. The goal is to illuminate a pioneering approach for promoting
toleration through religious processes that engage and respect the
narrative and beliefs of the Other, be it religious or ethnic groups.
