Sarah Smith Memorial Conferences on Moral Leadership

Schedule Speakers

"Crumbs from the Table?" Third Annual Sarah Smith Conference
September 21-22, 2006 | Yale University Divinity School, New Haven, Connecticut.

The third annual Sarah Smith Memorial Conference on Moral Leadership will be held at Yale Divinity School. The conference will feature international leaders from business, development, economics, politics and theology. While much Christian conversation has focused rightly on direct aid, this conference takes up the question of why, and especially how, Christians can turn to entrepreneurial ventures as a response to inequality and poverty. We will ask, to recall the title, how to move beyond offering crumbs to the poor and instead offer them means to gain a chair at the table. This interdisciplinary conference will be essential for those who want a fresh perspective on an age-old problem.
