As such, Sacred Encounters seeks to create an alternative, safe space for academic and personal consideration of religious pluralism. Sacred Encounters will offer graduate students from across Georgetown's various schools and departments an opportunity to engage with interesting and important questions of interreligious life (such as multiple religious belonging and religion's role in the public sphere) with no barriers to participation.

Why not sharpen those skills and insights with business principles that may enhance the future work and change we aim to drive throughout meaningful careers. As the SFS Graduate Net Impact Chapter grows its membership, it wants to offer a trove of resources to students wishing to learn the nuts and bolts of the private sector's role in foreign policy/development, identify the locus of activity around CSR in the greater DC metropolitan area and beyond, and identify networks of forward-thinking leaders who see tremendous value in adding a youthful voice to ongoing processes of social change.
