On Sunday and Monday, May 3 and 4, 2009, The Center for the Study of Science and Religion at the Earth Institute of Columbia University, in collaboration with The Fetzer Institute of Kalamazoo, Michigan, is holding a public dialogue between science and religion on sustainability—Common Ground.

This program will bring together scholars, leaders, and activists from diverse fields and perspectives to describe and plot a path toward a sustainable and equitable future. We are looking forward to an exciting and distinguished group of people contributing to the exploration of these topics.
