International Seminar: 
“The Council of Nicaea (325), a Theological Event”

September 1-4, 2025

Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile

Santiago de Chile

The year 2025 will mark the 1700th anniversary of the meeting of the Ecumenical Council of Nicaea.

The Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile is organizing an International Seminar in Santiago de Chile, seeking to build bridges between the theological and historical aspects of the Council of Nicaea.

The Seminar also hopes to highlight the ecumenical dimension of the Council, inviting and expecting the participation of researchers from the three great Christian traditions, and will culminate with an ecumenical liturgical celebration on Friday, September 5, 2025.

The organizers of the Seminar invite proposals for original scientific papers on the Council of Nicaea, the various aspects of its historical contextualization, its development, the theological, ecclesiastical and political challenges posed by its meeting, and the history of its reception and its effects at all levels, with the aim of contributing to an interdisciplinary dialogue between theologians and historians.
