M.Phil. in Ecumenical Studies (Dublin) – email: ecumsec@tcd.ie

Ecumenics brings together in a disciplined manner, theology, social and political theory and the study of interreligious relations, so as to engage critically with the plurality of religions and value systems, with a view to strengthening truthful and just relationships within the oikoumene (one inhabited earth). The programme focuses on three key areas in which mutual understanding and relationship inform respective identities, ongoing conflicts and approaches to reconciliation – intra-Christian, interreligious and with other ethical and political agents and agencies.
