The Laudato Si' Research Institute (LSRI), in partnership with the Al-Mahdi Institute and Cambridge Muslim College and with the support of the MB Reckitt Trust, invites applications for two formation courses, exploring Christian and Muslim responses to the ecological crisis.
Registrations are now open for the course at the Al-Mahdi Institute, Birmingham. For more details on course aims, contents, and how to register, please consult the dedicated event page:
The course will be led by LSRI Research Affiliate Farhana Mayer. Ms Mayer is a Qur’anic Hermeneutics scholar with a deep knowledge of the Christian tradition. She was previously a lecturer at the School of Oriental and African Studies and the Institute of Ismaili Studies. Academic staff from the Al-Mahdi Institute and the Cambridge Muslim College will co-lead some sessions.
We are grateful for the support of the MB Reckitt Trust.
