- Indigenous Spiritualities in Global Perspective
- 22-23 June 2026

The Religion in Society Research Network explores the relationship between religion in society and the changing nature of spirituality. We seek to build an epistemic community where we can make linkages across disciplinary, geographic, and cultural boundaries. As a Research Network, we are defined by our scope and concerns and motivated to build strategies for action framed by our shared themes and tensions.
The Sixteenth International Conference on Religion & Spirituality in Society calls for research addressing the following annual themes.
We're happy to share the schedule of sessions for the International Conference on Religion & Spirituality in Society.
