Discussion 2:
Art and the Moral Imagination – In collaboration with Religion and Public Life at Harvard Divinity School
Moderator – Dr. Hussein Rashid, Assistant Dean of Religion and Public Life
Professor and activist John Paul Lederach defines the moral imagination as “the capacity to imagine something rooted in the challenges of the real world yet capable of giving birth to that which does not yet exist.”
Religion and Public Life (RPL) at Harvard Divinity School is hosting a three-part series that engages with scholars, practitioners, and scholar-practitioners on the role of the arts in just peacebuilding. ANIKAYA’s Conference of the Birds is the first of these.
These conversations will engage elements of RPL’s approach to just peacebuilding by exposing power structures, understanding systems of violence, engaging relationally, being creative, and exploring the role of religion.
