Conferences

Every two years, the ESWTR hosts an international conference with a relevant feminist-theological theme. Within this framework, a general meeting of the ESWTR is conducted. Between international conferences, the members meet in their national and regional networks. Central and Eastern European conferences have also been established.

Invitation to the

International Conference of the ESWTR

18-22 August 2027, Ávila (Spain)

with the title:

Women and Prophecy.

Mysticism as Transforming Action in the World.

From an open and committed perspective in this conflicted world, we aim to foster a dialogue between contemplation and action. To achieve this, we will bring into conversation mystic women (mysticism understood as an experience of encounter, wonder, and joy with the Other that transforms) and prophets women (prophecy as a word proclaimed and vindicated) who have come before us, as well as women of our own time, so that both past and present can help us respond to the challenges of the future. The goal is to highlight the keys that allow us to build the plural reality of our time in social spaces of coexistence, recognition, and inclusion.

The conference will be held in the privileged setting of the University of Mysticism in Ávila: CITeS - Universidad Mística, where accommodation options will be available.

The detailed program, registration link, and call for papers will be published later at the same website.

The conference will be held in Spanish, English, and German.

Through this call, we request support and donations to organize this international congress with the utmost care and in ecumenical and interreligious communion, as we have no other external funding. The names and logos of the collaborating entities will be published in the program, on the Association´s international website, and on the social media of the Association of Spanish Women Theologians: Teología / Asociación de Teólogas Españolas and other related platforms before, during, and after the congress.
