Co-sponsored by the American Academy of Religion, American Council of Learned Societies, and the Institute for Diversity and Civic Life
Please join us for a networking event and reception for publicly engaged scholars of religion. This event is designed to support and connect scholars of all career stages, working within and beyond the academy, who are pursuing publicly-engaged and/or community-based research. The session will offer opportunities for attendees to discuss issues of mutual interest, make new connections, learn about each other's work, and share resources and tools. In addition, co-hosts ACLS, the American Academy of Religion, and the Institute for Diversity and Civic Life will share information about resources they provide for public scholars. We will also update attendees about the joint “Publicly Engaged Religion Scholarship Mapping Project.”
Whether you are new to publicly-engaged and community-based work, or have years of experience and expertise, we invite you to join us and connect with scholars deepening public understanding of the roles of religion in society.
