The Koinonia Forum is an annual graduate conference, held each spring at Princeton Theological Seminary, dedicated to fostering rigorous academic exchange and interdisciplinary dialogue among graduate students from institutions across North America. Organized and coordinated by Ph.D. students from diverse academic disciplines, the forum provides a unique platform for participants to present their research, engage in critical discussions, and expand their academic and professional networks. We invite paper proposals from current students for this upcoming conference on the theme of “Tech, Faithfully.”
Advances in technology are often catalysts for social change. As we face the promise and uncertainty of AI, we ask scholars to reflect on the relationship between religion and technology both past and present. What does it mean for individuals or communities to use technology faithfully? What is the role of religious communities in shaping the future of these technologies? How does technology determine the shape of religious belief and practice today? We are open to any topic that may fall under the rubric of technology and religious faith, but some topics we are interested in include:
We welcome submissions from any discipline, so long as it addresses religion or religious communities in some way.
