The SciFaiR 2025 – Science, Faith and Religion Summit is a pioneering event located in Budapest to create a dedicated intellectual space for scholars of different disciplines to converge at the intersection of science and faith.

SciFaiR 2025 will serve as a platform for meaningful, academically grounded dialogue between scholarly and religious thought. Recognizing the growing need for such an encounter, HUN-REN is bringing to Budapest internationally renowned thinkers who are leading voices in fields such as theology, philosophy, physics, genetics, biblical studies, and the study of religion.

This two-day international event, scheduled for 9-10 October 2025, endevours to facilitate dialogue between experts in various fields, including research, philosophy, and theology. As a one-of-its-kind initiative in Hungary, SciFaiR 2025 sets off to drive and facilitate shared reflection, academic networking, and mutual inspiration, contributing to a long-term dialogue between realms of science and faith on the national and international levels.

Planned to be a recurrent international event, SciFair 2025 is launched with the ambition to serve not only as a conference but also as a tradition.
