Speaker Events

One of the most important aspects of the work of the Institute is to encourage conversation around topics related to Anglican Religious Life. To this end we have initiated a new series of speaker events at St Antony’s Priory.

These include a termly research seminar, hosted in partnership with the Michael Ramsey Centre for Anglican Studies at the University of Durham, as well as other one-off speaker events, such as book launches.
