At a recent Board meeting, the Institute for Feminism and Religion decided to focus its work for the next several years
on the prophetic cry
(found in various forms in most religions)
"I Desire Mercy Not Sacrifice".
This November, in conjunction with the Centre for Gender and Women’s Studies, Trinity College Dublin, we are organising four events on this theme:

The Institute for Feminism and Religion aims to explore a prophetic approach to feminism and religion, inclusive of many traditions and emerging consciousness in Ireland.
We do this by providing opportunities for women to reclaim religion by engaging theoretically and experientially with the issues or feminist theology, ethics, spirituality and ritual.
