The Annual St John's College London Convocation
St John's College will travel to London on 14th July for this year's annual Convocation and a thought-provoking discussion: ‘Europe and the need for a global ethical dimension’.
The UK has voted to leave the EU, but it will continue to be firmly rooted, geographically, culturally, politically and economically, in Europe. As Europe’s share of the global economy reduces can its experience illuminate ways of developing an underpinning ethic for humanity on which a sustainable future for our world can be built?
Speakers:
Richard Adams OBE, founder, Traidcraft
Paul Brannan, MEP
Bishop Robert Innes, the Bishop in Europe
Ben Ryan, Theos
