Regional Workshop on Hermeneutics and Lutheran Identity in African Contexts

This workshop brings together twenty-five young African Lutheran theologians on the eve of the 60th anniversary of the first All-Africa Lutheran Conference held in 1955.

Participants are looking to identify ways to:

• increase the quality and contribution of the theological work of African Lutheran theologians
• stimulate thinking in creative ways of contributing to the global identity of the Lutheran communion from the African context
• contribute to the global Lutheran and Christian hermeneutics
• establish a specific action plan for the next four years leading up to the 500th anniversary of the Reformation in 2017
