Cambridge International Conference (Cambridge, UK): ‘Rebooting Ecumenism– New Paradigms for the 21st Century’

On 5-6 December, 2025 Sister Vassa will speak at Jesus College, Cambridge University, at the International Conference,  Rebooting Ecumenism: New Paradigms for the 21st Century, an event organized by the Cambridge Centre for Orthodox Studies in Ecumenism in collaboration with the Huffington Ecumenical Institute at Loyola University. The event is organized with the support of The Anglican & Eastern Churches Association and The Nikaean Ecumenical Trust. Other speakers at this conference include Rt Revd Dr Rowan Williams, Professors  Peter Bouteneff, David Fergusson,  Tamara Grdzelidze, Hans-Peter Großhans, Revd Cyril Hovorun, Revd Andrew Louth, John Milbank and Paul Murray. Zoom participation will also be available.

The aim of this conference is to explore potential new paradigms, or indeed revisit old models, in order to ensure a more fruitful and dynamic ecumenical dialogue for today and for the future. It attempts to make a contribution to bringing ecumenism back to the fore of all theological discourse, an ecumenism, however, that is tailored for our modern reality in the digital era of accelerated globalization. Therefore, this conference seeks to explore novel models of perceiving or conceiving ecumenism, from historical to contemporary paradigms, from theological to ecclesiological or pastoral designs, and from spirituality to methodology.
