Dr Hilary Marlowe will speak on The Cry of the Earth and the Cry of the Poor: Ecojustice and Faith
 
Dr Hilary Marlow is a biblical scholar, researcher and writer on theology and the environment. She is an Official Fellow at Girton College, Cambridge and a member of the Faculty of Divinity in the University of Cambridge. 
 
Hilary’s on-going academic research focuses on the Bible’s depiction of the interaction between people and the natural world, and the relevance of this in contemporary contexts. She is particularly interested in religious, especially Christian, motivations for environmental concern and the use of the Bible in environmental ethics. 
 
Hilary regularly speaks on faith and the environment in churches and other non-academic contexts. For many years she has been actively involved with the Christian conservation charity A Rocha where she is currently a Trustee. In her spare time, she enjoys tending a small field just outside Cambridge with her husband Ian, where they grow their own fruit and vegetables and try to be mindful of their own ecological footprint.
