The 2017 LAMP symposium aims to raise public awareness and provide
resources for students, faculty, religious congregations, and community
leaders in Atlanta who work with immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers
or care about issues of global migration. In keeping with the LAMP
vision to promote multifaith understanding in a religiously plural society,
speakers and workshop leaders will address questions of migration from a
variety of perspectives, including legal advocacy, spiritual care, education,
interfaith action, and community organizing. By highlighting action steps
and opportunities for partnership, this third annual LAMP symposium
aims to work across religious and academic boundaries to promote strong
communities, a vibrant nation, and a peaceful and prosperous world.
