Association for Bahá’í Studies Conference program and videos now available – July 29 to July 31, 2022

All 2022 ABS conference videos now available for viewing!

If you have registered already, just hit “login” on the conference website. Watch the videos, take in the companion readings, then join us for the live conversations on 29-31 July.

From agriculture to public health, from reparations for the damages of racism to rethinking cities, from the nature of law to the nature of trust, from philosophy to Revelation—we read reality together and then we create a new one.

New this year: ABS Pods

Although this year the conference is again online, that doesn’t mean that we have to forgo the energy and fellowship of an in-person event!

ABS Pods are small gatherings organized by individuals, groups, or institutions for their local community during/near the conference dates. Through the initiative and creativity of the friends, we hope to bring the spirit of a Bahá’í scholarly conference to our neighbourhoods.

If you are interested in organizing one for your friends, family, or community, please contact the ABS office at abs-na@bahaistudies.ca.

Summer workshops

ABS is offering two more sessions of our workshop on “Contributing to Academic and Professional Discourse” on Sunday August 7th and Sunday, August 28. The workshops provide the opportunity to study guidance on participation in discourses and on the evolving conceptual framework, and to share related experience.
