ET 645 ETHICS: A CASE APPROACH to Empowering Reconciliation and Dialogue

Hartford Seminary
Tuesdays and Thursdays
May 29-June 28^th, 6-9PM
 

Plowshares directors, Robert and Alice Evans, and staff will be teaching a course at Hartford Seminary this coming May and June. Many believe the US is in a moral crisis complicated by a polarized society.  This context challenges persons of faith to build skills in ethical reflection as well as reconciliation.  Using true, “problem-posing” case studies class discussion will focus on economics, environment, health and sexuality.  This dynamic, interactive approach helps religious and community leaders deal more faithfully and effectively with ethical decision-making from a faith perspective.  The course will also involve learning skills of creative pro-active conflict intervention that the Evans have employed in the US, Indonesia and South Africa which led to their nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize. Participants will also be equipped to use this method to engage congregations, communities and co-workers in constructive dialogue and change. The course will meet each Tuesday and Thursday evening from May 29 to June 28 from 6 to 9 p.m.
