Religion and Violence: Sources, History, & Contemporary World

This four-day conference will bring together international experts from various academic disciplines, as well as policy makers, journalists, non-governmental organizations, and members of different faith traditions. In addition to plenary presentations from scholarly experts, the colloquium will host a series of workshops and fishbowl sessions that will be open to the public.
Two full days of the colloquium will be dedicated to graduate student presentations and events. This colloquium is a collaboration between McGill University’s Centre for Research on Religion and Concordia University’s Department of Theological Studies, events will therefore be hosted on both campuses.
Events on April 18 and April 20 will take place on the Sir George Williams Campus in MB-9E, MB-9B, MC-9G and H-110.
