What’s happening?

As Professor of Education within the Institute of Childhood and Education at Leeds Trinity University, Professor Kate Adams is the second academic to feature in our new series of Inaugural Professorial Lectures.

Professor Adams’ research specialisms are in children's spirituality and the implications for schools, with a focus on understanding spiritual and/or religious experiences from their perspectives. She works with children of all faiths and none, with a particular interest in those from no faith background. Areas of interest include young people's spiritual dreams, encounters with angels and deceased loved ones, imaginary friends/invisible companions and children's spiritual voice(s) which are often unheard.

Professor Adams has over two decades of experience working at universities in Scotland and England. She is on the international advisory board of the Journal of Religious Education and International Journal of Children's Spirituality. She regularly reviews papers for a range of journals and grant applications for funding bodies. Furthermore, Professor Adams is a former Director of the International Association for the Study of Dreams and former co-chair of the International Association of Children's Spirituality.

Following the lecture, guests are invited to enjoy a light buffet and refreshments.
