Dear Friends and Colleagues,

 

It is a great pleasure and an honour to host the 2022 European Association for the Study of Religions conference at University College Cork.

 

On the theme of Religions and States of Freedom, this conference offers a multi-disciplinary forum for academic discussion on the non-confessional and non-theological study of religions.

 

We are delighted to welcome you to Cork and the UCC campus in the centenary year of the founding of the Irish Free State, Saorstát Éireann. Over the course of the EASR 2022 conference, we hope you can experience the hospitality, music and culture of our vibrant city and the stunning beauty of our county and coastline.

Céad Míle Fáilte!
