Healing Hatred: Spiritual Challenges in a Context of Political Conflict

Annual Conference of the International Association of Spiritual Care (IASC).

The second annual conference of the International Association of Spiritual Care (IASC), on the theme of Healing Hatred: Spiritual Challenges in a Context of Political Conflict will take place in Jerusalem and Bethlehem July 9-11th 2017, inspired by the joint project of the same name conceived of and implemented by the Hebrew Union College – Jewish Institute of Religion, the Rossing Center for Education and Dialogue (formerly the Jerusalem Center for Jewish-Christian Relations) and the Holy Land Trust.

This project is a pioneering and innovative application of the tools and concepts of spiritual care to the field of intractable conflict and interreligious peacebuilding. The 2017 conference will create a ground-breaking opportunity for academics and professionals from the fields of spiritual care and interreligious peacebuilding to come together to consider how their fields overlap, and how, in a world increasingly fractured and broken, we can find new paths to healing and to overcoming enmity and division.
