Anthropology needs to expand beyond the study of mere humans, for the effects of climate change and the pollution of our life-sustaining biosphere are impacting all living species, which are interdependent. This conference brings into play interpretive, scientific, and religious perspectives on forms of life in their cultural and natural environments. It promotes new ways of inquiring into the entangled relations between humans and deities, ancestors, ghosts, animals, insects, plants, and sacred natural formations such as rocks, rivers, and mountains. Across the globe, how do different religious communities, doctrines, and institutions play a role in the age of the Anthropocene?
