Pan-African Catholic Theology and Pastoral Network

Pan-African Catholic Theology and Pastoral Network is a collaborative research initiative funded by The Center for World Catholicism and Intercultural Theology (CWCIT) of DePaul University. CUEA signed an MOU that began in 2021 and shall remain in force for five (5) years.

The project promotes university research activities including: holding annual CWCIT-CUEA seminar/webinar, interdisciplinary conferences for faculty development and doctoral students in the Faculty of Theology. Key activities include monitoring, capacity building, attracting grants, publishing, and promoting the fruits of research through academic linkages with Tangaza University College and Hekima.

The project also organizes post-Congress workshops to share the fruits of the Congress with the wider university community, with a view to following up with pedagogical and curricular innovations around the theme of a vital Church in Africa.

The project includes an element of exchange programme and interdisciplinary discussions on the challenges facing the Catholic Church based on the pastoral concerns of AMECEA, Africa and the World.
