The war, especially how to seek peaceful and effective solutions to rebuild an authentic Christian culture, the central theme of this fourth edition open to the general public
The Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum, in Rome, in collaboration with the Acton Institute, will hold the fourth edition of the symposium “War and Peace: Conflict and Culture in the Modern World”. The event, which will take place from February 27 to March 1, is open to students, professors, postgraduate students, and all those interested in the subject. The focus will be on war, primarily on how to seek peaceful and effective solutions to rebuild an authentic Christian culture.
The symposium will be conducted in English (with simultaneous interpretation into Spanish) and will address the current war in Ukraine, ongoing critical struggles in culture and spirituality, including media topics, the global economy, geopolitics, and political-religious history, beginning with a theological-philosophical overview and ending with an effective tactical lesson that answers the question “How can this be carried out?”
Discussion and debate sessions are planned after each lecture, as well as a networking session. You can read the full program here

The Acton Institute is a think tank whose mission is to promote a free and virtuous society characterized by individual liberty and based on religious principles. It encompasses an objective framework of moral values but also recognizes and appreciates the subjective nature of economic value. It considers justice as a duty for everyone to give each what is due, but more importantly, as an individual obligation to serve the common good and not just one’s own needs and desires.
