1999 PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLY AND CALL TO OUR GUIDING INSTITUTIONS
During each Parliament, an Assembly of several hundred religious and spiritual leaders, scholars, and activists from the world's religious and spiritual communities gathers to consider the relevance of religion and spirituality to today's world. At the 1993 Parliament, the Assembly deliberated over a document–Towards a Global Ethic–that articulated those moral and ethical directives which the great traditions hold in common. The 1999 Assembly will be asked to reflect on A Call to Our Guiding Institutions , a powerful document which brings these directives to bear on the roles and responsibilities of powerful and influential institutions–including religion; government; agriculture, labor, industry, and commerce; education; arts and communications media; science and medicine; international intergovernmental organisations; and the organisations of civil society–in the 21st century. At the heart of this call will be an invitation to a process of 'creative engagement' whereby religious and spiritual communities, groups and individuals find new modes of interaction, dialogue, and collaboration with the other guiding institutions.
Each Parliament participant will also receive a copy of A Call to Our Guiding Institutions and have numerous opportunities to attend presentations and workshops exploring ways of implementing the document’s calls to action.
