Online lecture Carmen Schuhmann (UvH) + discussion (July 8)

This year we will organize a one-day online summerclass on Wednesday 8th of July. Carmen Schumann of the University for Humanistics will give a lecture based on her recent ARTICLE on chaplaincy. After that we will discuss the article, and look at the chaplaincy situation in the countries of the participants in smaller groups. We will end with a plenary session, and look at the summerschool 2021. Please contact us at humgv@mindef.nl or info@humanistprofessionals.eu if you wish to register. 

Due to the Corona-circumstances we had to decide to postpone the summerschool, as you will understand. The University of Humanistics is very busy developing online classes for their regular students, which means they cannot prepare the chaplaincy summerschool to a good level. Also the uncertainties about the possibilities to travel in july are an important reason to postpone.

But we have set a new date in 2021, more or less in the same period: 5th of july till the 9th of july 2021. Please save the date.
