INCHE postponed face-to-face events in 2020 and 2021 because of COVID 19. But the postponements created new online opportunities described below: 

·  Latin American leaders announce a December 1-3, 2020 online seminar on the topic, “Christian Identity, Higher Education, and Public Impact in Latin America.” This INCHE consultation is sponsored jointly with the Latin American Theological Fellowship (LATF) and the Community of Interdisciplinary Theological Studies (CETI).  For three afternoons speakers and panelists in this Spanish-language event will consider the role of both centers of Christian higher education and the role of Christians who serve in the secular sphere of higher education. Over the past fifty years how have such Christian educators influenced both the church and society by contributing to its transformation? Further information about the seminar is available in both Spanish and English here. The registration deadline is Friday, November 27.

·  INCHE Europe leaders announce a March 18, 2021 gathering on the theme, “Christian Higher Education in a Pandemic: Possibilities for Fractured European Societies.” This interactive online occasion in the English language will feature reflections by Dr. Gerald Pillay, Vice-Chancellor of Liverpool Hope University (U.K.) and an engaging session by Dr. Jeroen de Ridder, Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and Professor of Christian Philosophy (by special appointment) at the University of Groningen. Further details are available here. Registration is now open to all INCHE members.

·  North American INCHE leaders are planning a joint event with Calvin University’s Kuyers Institute for Christian Teaching and Learning focused on Christians and citizenship. That in-person conference scheduled for October 2021 is postponed to October 6-8, 2022. Plans currently are being developing for engaging online opportunities over the year ahead. Details will be announced on the INCHE website in forthcoming months.

The INCHE mission to serve Jesus as Lord by fostering worldwide Christian higher education continues.  INCHE leaders are finding new ways to cultivate learning and network fellowship online.
