The Quest of Being Human in Our Times
The 4th International Seminar on Theology, Religion, Culture And Humanities
Faculty of Theology, Sanata Dharma University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia (Pontifical Faculty of Theology “Wedabhakti”)
Background
With rapid advances in technology, artificial intelligence, shifting societies, environmental challenges, and growing cultural diversity, the question “What does it mean to be human?” is more pressing than ever. In Asia, and especially in Indonesia, this question arises amid communal ways of life, interreligious exchanges, economic disparities, and the ongoing balance between tradition and modernity.
Philosophy and Catholic theology both provide valuable perspectives on human nature, dignity, freedom, and responsibility. Alongside these, recent developments in biology, psychology, insights from Asian wisdom, local cultures, and contextual theologies contribute new understandings to worldwide discussions on philosophical and theological anthropology.
This international seminar aims to create a scholarly space for thoughtful debate and meaningful dialogue about what it means to be human today, with a particular focus on Asian – Indonesian experiences while welcoming global viewpoints.
This seminar is held annually and organized by Faculty of Theology, Sanata Dharma University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia (Pontifical Faculty of Theology “Wedabhakti”).
