Symposia
The Parliament Symposia are a chance to focus in depth on issues of importance to a wide variety of different religious and spiritual communities. These high-powered events will offer Parliament participants the chance to explore a variety of issues interactively with some of the leading international scholars and practitioners on these issues.
Symposia Topics:
Leading Institutional Partners. Each symposium is organized and sponsored by a partnership of different institutions that are recognized as leaders in these fields. Working with the Parliament, they have designed programs that bring internationally recognized individuals in these fields to the Parliament
Interreligious Focus. Each symposium addresses topics that are of concern to a broad range of religious and spiritual communities and the design of the symposium reflects this with leaders and scholars from diverse traditions working together to explore these topics.

Interactive. Each symposium is an opportunity not only to hear the views of these leaders and experts but to participate with them and, in doing so, develop resources that you will have as you return to your community. For an even more interactive experience, we are also offering a few daylong workshops to focus on specific methodologies.
Because the different programs build on one another over the course of each day, we hope that participants will consider attending the entire day of a given symposium.
