Connectedness and identity in a time of religious flux Invitation to Register for The AARE Conference 2014 Australian Association for Religious Education (Inc) 25th Biennial National Conference Amora Hotel, Richmond, Victoria connectedness and identity in a time of religious flux September 29 - 1 October 2014 1 Welcome The Australian Association for Religious Education (AARE) invites you to its biennial conference for 2014. The theme of the conference is iConnect - iDiscover – I Am: Connectedness and Identity in a Time of Religious Flux. The development of the Australian Curriculum provides a unique opportunity to set the framework for the ongoing role that religious education can have for all school students. This conference will offer participants the forum to address this question in its broadest context; from AARE’s traditional base in Independent and Catholic education; to our expanding engagement with inter-religious dialogue; and for the first time, to the role of religious education in Government schools. Our highly respected keynote presenters and workshop and paper submissions that have been received are foundation for what is guaranteed to be a challenging, informative, inspirational and ultimately memorable conference. We are especially looking forward to the interfaith Q & A on Wednesday morning and to the Wednesday afternoon Post Conference Seminar, both of which will consider these questions at the broadest level. Please read through this brochure carefully, and particularly note the relevance and quality of our presenters and their papers and workshops. I encourage you to sign up to attend as soon as you can. I look forward to meeting you at the 2014 Conference.
