Interfaith Speaker Series


The Interfaith Speaker Series is an occasional series sponsored by the Emory Office of Spiritual and Religious Life and various cosponsors that seeks to promote religious and philosophical literacy, interfaith dialogue, and intersectional relationships to advance service and social justice. Speakers may be of any religious or philosophical background, and are invited to speak on themes that are relevant to multiple religious traditions with the goal of advancing thoughtful interfaith learning and engagement within the university community. Building on the great tradition of spiritual leaders who have worked across faith lines to advance justice and peace, it seeks to reduce stereotypes, prevent polarization, and foster common action for the common good.
