How do roots inspire us in the midst of crises,
whether they be environmental, within our communities,
or in our own personal, spiritual lives?
How can our ancestral and unfolding place-based relations tether us to hope?
How do emerging roots allow us to move forward through intercommunions of persons,
communities, religions, spiritualities, and scientific practices?
And ultimately, we ask, what if everything we need is right below our feet?
Hosted at Yale University, the Graduate Conference in Religion and Ecology reflects a desire to provide a space for students to engage in dynamic, interdisciplinary conversations across curricular boundaries, and strives to connect ethos with ethics, and ethics to applicable practicality.
The field of Religion and Ecology addresses some of the most complex challenges of our time. Complementing the Religion and Ecology programs at Yale Divinity School and Yale School of the Environment, the GCRE provides a space for graduate students to take part in the emerging field of religion and ecology as scholar-practitioners.
