Dear all,
(Sorry for cross-posting). Here is a link to an upcoming international
conference I am currently co-organising to be held at the University of
NSW on June 20 and 21. The conference theme is 'Sexual Abuse in
Religious Contexts'. The conference is an interdisciplinary conference
bringing together: psychiatrists, psychologist, philosophers, social
scientist, theologians, lawyers and representatives of various faith
groups to discuss this important issue. While the program of speakers is
still being finalised there will be *at least *three philosophers, all
of whom have an interest in ethics, applied ethics and/or social theory
who will be contributing. Of further interest to philosophers Prof.
Peter Jonkers, from the Faculty of Catholic Theology at the University
of Tilburg in Holland who has published widely on philosophical and
ethical themes in German and Dutch will also be speaking.
Those who wish to find out a little more about the conference can visit

Currently the conference is sponsored by a range of institutions
including the NSW Health Department, The Royal Australian and New
Zealand College of Psychiatrists, The Cannan Institute, The School of
Philosophical and Historical Inquiry at the University of Sydney, and
the Department of Psychiatry at the University of NSW.
Further updates will follow through first semester.
Yours,
Philip Quadrio
