The following two events are from a special issue of the European Bulletin. 

WPCT CHARLEMAGNE LECTURE

The Annual WPCT Charlemagne Lecture this year is taking place on Tuesday 19 October at 6:45 pm at the River room at King’s College London. The speaker is Philip Lowe who has held a number of top European Commission posts in the fields of regional development, agriculture, transport and administration and is currently the Director General of the Energy Directorate. His theme is “Energy Policy in a Changing Climate”. For more details contact Win Burton on wpctrust@googlemail.com.

CONFERENCE AT ASTON UNIVERSITY

I have received details of a conference at Aston University on 12 - 13 November entitled "Does God Matter? Representing Religion in the European Union and the United States" with expert guest speakers. The best way of accessing the details is to go to the link: http://www1.aston.ac.uk/lss/research/centres-institutes/aston-centre-europe/projects-grants/religion-eu/conference/ 

The deadline for registering is 15 October.

The organiser, Dr Lucian Leustean (who lectures at Aston) is researching into European ecumenical church twinning links: how and when they started, how they developed, events that have taken place etc. If you are able to provide help and information I am sure he would be delighted to hear from you. His email is: L.LEUSTEAN@aston.ac.uk
