Polin Days

Welcome to the Polin Days on 16-17 November, 2022! Both days will take place in Auditorium Theologicum, Biskopsgatan 16. The theme for the Polin Days is the relationship between theology and the study of religions. On the first day, researchers will present their research. The day ends with a lecture on interdisciplinary/cross-disciplinary research by Prof. Päivi Salmesvuori. On the second day, we continue with the theme of interdisciplinarity and delve into the relationship between theology and the study of religions. We warmly invite participants from different academic disciplines and backgrounds to participate.
