We are delighted to be collaborating with the Society of African Missions for the SMA Summer School 2022, which will once again be taking place online via Zoom.
Theme: Sufficiency Not Growth, Towards a More Sustainable Future.
The Summer School provides high-quality, evidence-based knowledge and insight on matters of social and environmental justice within a faith context, with a view to supporting those committed to advocating for more just and sustainable policies in Ireland.
The focus for 2022 is on the current ecocidal and socially destructive system of unconstrained growth, profit and consumption and we will be looking at the questions of whether there is another way for us to live together on this planet, and to use its resources more justly, wisely and sustainably.
Date: Saturday 18th June to Sunday 19th of June
There is no charge for this event.
