A first time gathering in Latin America, the conference called on the theme of decoloniality, challenging the ways in which Christianity’s thinking and doing are both marked by coloniality but also by many forms of liberation. This book is a collection of the talks given in that conference covering the theoretical aspects of decoloniality as well as three main themes that ran through the event: 1) Decolonizing theological concepts and practices: reflection on theories, methods and approaches of decoloniality, investigating relations with the economy, genders and sexualities, forms of subjectivities and knowledges as well as the earth itself; 2) Religious Practices, cultures and spirituality: exploration of the roles of practical theologies in diverse global contexts as well as diverse practices and religious pluralism; 3) Liberating Hope: practical theology in action: examination of the counter-cultural theology in churches located on different contexts and borders, interreligious transformations, beauty and the body as it relates to the image of God.

Conference Series”.The International Academy of Practical Theology promotes the study and critical reflection on practical theological thought and action. The Academy is convinced that this critical reflection should be pursued with attention to the various historical and cultural contexts in which practical theology is done. Out of respect for the diversity of these contexts, the Academy seeks to promote international, interracial, and ecumenical dialogue and understanding.Our bi-annual conferences provide a platform for this dialogue. The Conference Series serves as a documentation of these dialogues and provides access to the academic discourse for readers around the world.InformationFor ReadersFor AuthorsFor LibrariansCooperationThis journal is published in cooperation with Index Theologicus© 2018-2021, International Academy of Practical Theology Conference Series (IAPT.CS).
