ALL of us or NONE of Us

Racial Justice follow-up conference, 4-7 December 2024, Germany

Redesigning the Ecumenical and Inter-faith landscape for a Racially Just, Wholistically Healthy and Radically Inclusive Community.

Dear Friends, 

As we have already communicated to you, the Racial Justice Working Group of the Diocese in Europe is organising a follow-up conference on Racial Justice to build on and keep up the momentum of what has already been achieved through the Freiburg Conference of 2023. It will be part of our Continuing Movement and Campaign to Ensure Greater Belonging and Healing. This major event is to be held from December 4-7 2024 at the Evangelische Akademie Bad Boll, Germany, located at the foot of the Swabian Alb. https://et-wue.de/unsere-haeuser/ev-tagungsstaette-bad-boll/

 

We are sure there will be many, including young people, in our Diocese who will want to participate. Partner churches and neighbouring faiths are also being encouraged to send representatives. We now write to ask you to register if you are interested in being part of this initiative and also to identify the right people who would be keen to participate and encourage them to register soon. 

 

This follow-up conference, ALL of us or NONE of Us is taking the Racial Justice agenda further in our ongoing journey From Lament to Action and will be another significant contribution in redesigning the ecumenical and Inter-faith landscape for a racially just, holistically healthy and radically inclusive community.
