COMMON DREAMS is an alliance of Australian and New Zealand kindred organisations which promote the study, discussion and implementation of Progressive Christian and other progressive religious streams of thought and action. Its principal method of pursuing these objectives is through its major “Common Dreams” conferences (see video on this page) which are held each three years plus the promotion of visits by leading international scholars and the sale and distribution of the materials that result from these activities.
The next Common Dreams conference will be held in Canberra over 19th to 22nd September, 2013 and it will feature as keynote speakers the renowned US scholar and writer, Professor Marcus Borg, leading Canadian theologian and writer, Bruce Sanguin, Rev. David Felten, a co-founder of the Living the Questions educational materials organisation, plus a group of leading Australian and New Zealand writers and speakers, including Dr Val Webb, Dr Lorraine Parkinson, Dr Margaret Mayman, Dr Greg Jenks, Rabbi Aviva Kipen, Prof. Norman Habel, Dr Nigel Leaves and others.
