Over three hundred theologians, scholars, professionals, lay leaders, students, and clergy are expected to gather in Volos, Greece, for the second international conference organized by the International Orthodox Theological Association – IOTA in January 2023.

The conference theme is “Mission and the Orthodox Church”, and it begins on January 11, 2023, with an optional morning outing, an evening Opening Ceremony, and a keynote address by His Eminence Metropolitan Ambrosios of Korea.

Three working days of paper sessions will follow, along with opportunities for church services and socialising: January 12-14.

IOTA organises international conferences and facilitates group research projects; the association contributes to the growth and renewal of the Orthodox Church by supporting pan-Orthodox unity and conciliarity.
