Religion in the news in 2024 – a review of the year
by Ruth Peacock, Religion Media Centre:
When 2024 began, our briefing looking ahead to 2024 predicted the stories to watch would be the US and UK election campaigns, the war in Israel / Gaza, schism in the Church of England over same-sex blessings, changes at the global Catholic Rome synod, and perennnial stories aorund climate change, poverty and freedom of religion.
No one predicted the resignation of the Archbishop of Canterbury; safeguarding issues shaking the foundations of the Church of England; the closure of the Interfaith network; the launch of The Muslim Vote to select Muslim MPs; race riots in England or support for a new Assisted Dying bill. And no one predicted peace in Gaza or Ukraine, or breakthroughs in climate negotiations which continue to prove elusive.
Here are some headlines of news about religion in 2024.
