Justitia et Pax Danmark

Arrangementsbeskrivelse

Justitia et Pax DK afholder sammen med fire andre organisationer en international konference med fokus på de 70% af skaberværket som er verdenshavene. 

Sammen med videnskabsfolk, folk fra det politiske system og NGOer, vil vi se på hvordan trossamfundene i samarbejde med civilsamfundet kan bidrage til FNs udviklingsmål, ifht klima og menneskerettigheder.

Ved at tale sammen på tværs og sætte mennesket i centrum, håber vi at kunne bidrage til en bredere dialog om vores fælles hjem planeten Jorden.  

Konferencen foregår på engelsk.
