Arthur Lyon DAHL - Topical Curriculum Vitae on
SCIENCE, ETHICS AND RELIGION

As a scientist and a Bahá'í, I have always been interested in the harmony of the two great knowledge systems that are science and religion, so complementary yet too often antagonistic. I have tried to show the value of science to religious groups and the importance of values to scientists, exploring the ethical dimensions of our over-materialistic society and issues such as climate change. This has included over forty year's experience in inter-religious dialogue, particularly in the area of environment and sustainable development. Some highlights have been participating for the UN in the World Summit on Religions and Conservation at Windsor Castle in 1995, acting as a rapporteur for the Orthodox Church's Conference on Religion, Science and the Environment: The Black Sea in Crisis in 1997, contributing to the series of Klingenthal Symposia on Ecology, Ethics and Spiritualities, speaking on a panel on ecology and religion at the Parliament of the World's Religions in Barcelona in 2004, participating for the Bahá'í International Community in the Windsor Celebration of religious action plans on climate change with Prince Phillip and Ban Ki-moon in 2009, and contributing to the debate on ethics and climate change at the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference, also in 2009. I helped to found the International Environment Forum, a Bahá'í-inspired professional organization for environment and sustainable development. One special interest has been the relationship of traditional cultures and belief systems to sustainable environmental management. Another has been to develop values-based indicators. I have also lectured and written widely on these topics.
