Belonging: Practices of Inclusion in Spiritual Communities, the Academy, and Society
The Program for the Evolution of Spirituality seeks to create a place of belonging for people who have been excluded from academic conversations because of their commitment to spiritual traditions that are small, new, marginalized, or stigmatized. Equally, we welcome those who have experienced or encountered harm in spiritual movements, and wish to explore the sources and implications of that harm.
Our fall 2026 conference will directly explore our founding commitment to inclusion and belonging. The conference will take place in hybrid format on September 24–26, 2026, along with one or two days of virtual-only presentations on September 21–22, 2026.
Suzanne’s workshop is scheduled for September 26th from 3:30 -5pm EST.
