Religion, Politics, and Development in Tumultuous Times
We are in a tumultuous time for development agendas and international politics. Given the end of the Sustainable Development Goals in 2030, changes to foreign aid within the Trump administration in the US, and political upheavals around the world, this panel explores and critically engages with intersections of religion, politics, and international development. Papers will explore international development funding and practices vis-a-vis religion as well as sociopolitical contestations vis-a-vis religion and the state in global contexts.
Review Process: Participant names are anonymous to chairs and steering committee members until after final acceptance/rejection
