CONRADIE, Ernst M.. From the theological encyclopaedia to doing ecotheology: On finding and losing the way. Verbum Eccles. (Online) [online]. 2026, vol.47, n.1, pp.1-8. ISSN 2074-7705.  https://doi.org/10.4102/ve.v47i1.3687.

This contribution is situated within the context of a 'Multi-Disciplinary Theological Conference on the Ecological Crisis in Southern Africa' involving colleagues from the Faculty of Theology and Religion at the University of Pretoria and Zomba Theological University, hosted at Liwonde, 12-15 August 2025. It refrains from addressing ecclesial responses to ecological destruction (in Malawi) and, instead, focuses on the stated aim to invite multidisciplinary research in the field of ecotheology. It offers a series of 10 statements in this regard with brief elucidation in each case. INTRADISCIPLINARY AND/OR INTERDISCIPLINARY IMPLICATIONS: On this basis, in the last of these statements, some constructive suggestions are offered on finding and losing a way and/or the way (forward) in ecotheology

Palavras-chave : ecotheology; fourfold paradigm; Malawi; interdisciplinary research; metadisciplinary research; multidisciplinary research; theological education; theological encyclopaedia.
