COVID-19, Religion and Belief: Webinar Series

This 14-part webinar series took a global approach to examining the impact of the pandemic on civil liberties, especially freedom of religion or belief. During the series, our guests also touched on cross-cutting themes like the impact of the pandemic on levels of religiosity, on religious practice, on theological reflection and religious imagination, on faith-based humanitarianism, on religion and on inclusion/xenophobia. The series brought together government officials, scholars, and practitioners to discuss the threats we face and how we might respond to them.
