2026 Annual Members Meeting and Conference
Responding to nationalism: Reconciliation or resistance?
Saturday 10 October, London
Like it or not, care of creation is now in a culture war. How do we bear a Christian witness at a time when environmental gains are being rolled back – including by people who want to reclaim the UK for Christianity?
At the 2026 Annual Members’ Meeting and Conference we discussed how to be a green Christian at a time of emboldened nationalism. Our speaker was Dr Jonathan Chaplin, a Cambridge political theologian working on issues of democracy and environmental theology.
We explored the many challenges of the new environmental politics, such as:
- Could food insecurity harden our borders?
- Just how Christian is Christian nationalism?
- Should green Christians help build a progressive alliance?
- Which is more effective: denunciation or dialogue?
The event took place on Saturday 10th October, at St Aloysius Church Hall, 20 Phoenix Road, London NW1 1TA. Just off Eversholt Street, East of Euston station.

Hi Jim, it was, but the sound was not brilliant - we're working out now if it's worth YouTubing it or not.
