Prague, June 2014

 

Dear friends,

 

We are happy to invite you to the annual conference of the Association of Friends

of PTF which will take place on November 14-16, 2014 in Prague. The theme of our meeting will be “Where is the exit? Europe’s guilt and ways to reconciliation”.

 

In the programmatic part of our meeting we focus on the question of patterns of behavior of our European civilization towards others. Is our current way of treating non-Western people creating unequal relations and injustice? Are we able to reset our way of acting? Is it possible to establish reconciliation with those we forced into a position of dependence and oppression? 

 

 

The main speaker in the program will be Prof. Notger Slenczka, who teaches systematic theology at Berlin’s Humboldt University. The second presentation of the program will be an examination of models of reconciliation in society after a period of discrimination and oppression (e.g. South Africa, or former communist countries).

 

We have reserved accommodation in the university student dormitory Kolej Komenského (address: Parléřova 682/6, Prague 6). The accommodation costs, including breakfast, range between 350.00 and 400.00 CZK/ night. The Association will contribute toward 50% of this cost.
