Just war? Developing a Christian response to armed conflict – Wed 29 May at 7pm

We are thrilled that Prof Tina Beattie has agreed to address us on the topic of just war and pacifism – looking at the ethical dilemmas posed by current global conflicts, as part of our Big Questions series.

Tina has written and researched extensively on Catholic approaches to just war and pacifism and we are keen to hear and discuss with her this most pertinent topic.

Once you have registered above you will be sent a Zoom link on or before 28 May.
