Keynote speaker for ‘Reconcilin­g a Wounded Planet’, Revd Margot Hodson, has reflected on her hope for the conference.

The 200-delegate event at Coventry Cathedral will bring Christians together to discuss how they can cooperate to find lasting solutions for the effects of climate change. Speakers include Bishop James Jones, Sir Ghilean Prance and Professor Richard Bauckham.

“It is very significan­t that Coventry Cathedral is taking a lead in responding to our environmen­tal crisis. My hope is that the conference will influence Christians internatio­nally to take environmen­tal concerns seriously and see the interconne­ction between human and environmen­tal concerns, especially through the lens of reconcilia­tion,” said Revd Hodson.

‘Reconcilin­g a Wounded Plant’ will take place at Coventry Cathedral on Friday 18th and Saturday 19th September.
