THE ROLE OF CHRISTIANS IN THE PUBLIC SQUARE
International conference to mark the official launch of our International Office in Rome |
On 29 June 2012, the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, the Dignitatis Humanae Institute will celebrate the official launch of our International Office in Rome, with our inaugural conference entitled 'The Role of Christians in the Public Square.' The featured speakers - including President Rocco Buttiglione,
Anna Záborská MEP and Gay Mitchell MEP - will
examine
the paramount importance of human dignity, its concept and the role of the Universal Declaration of Human Dignity. Furthermore, there will be an emphasis on the experiences of Christians in the public sphere and the role of faith in politics.
The conference shall be followed by an evening reception to officially launch our Rome office. The purpose of this office is to better provide structural support for the affiliated Parliamentary Working Groups on Human Dignity, with another working group due to be launched in the Italian Parliament next month.
Registration for the day's events can still be made HERE. The Institute looks forward to greeting our associates and friends from across the globe to the Eternal City. |
