Message from the Acting Head of the RITR

As the RITR commemorates its 50th year of existence, we have much to be thankful for and to celebrate.

The staff members of the RITR have worked together to make the RITR one of the leading theological and religious research hubs on the continent of Africa. Building research partnerships with academic associates from 8 countries across Africa, 3 countries in Europe and 1 in North America, the RITR has continued to excel in its research activities and production through the publication of journal articles, book chapters, monographs and conference proceedings.

Furthermore, the RITR continues to host regular workshops, seminars and conferences. If you would like to receive updates on the RITR’s activities, please email me at bentlw1@unisa.ac.za so that you can be added to our mailing list.

We look forward to sharing our research with you.
