HM King Charles III on ‘Islam and the Environment’ (2010 lecture)

HM King Charles III (as HRH The Prince of Wales), Patron of the Oxford Centre for Islamic Studies, delivered a lecture on 9th June 2010 at the Sheldonian Theatre, to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Centre.

In this lecture on ‘Islam and the Environment’, HM King Charles discusses how we must recognise our shared responsibility when it comes to actively addressing environmental issues. He emphasises the value of drawing upon spiritual and practical values, and explores how traditional arts and methods serve to keep alive a vital relationship with nature.

The introduction was given by Dr Farhan Nizami, Director of the Centre. The [then] Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford, Professor Andrew Hamilton, presided over the lecture, and delivered the Vote of Thanks.
