Regional Conference 2027

We warmly invite you to the DRAE Regional Conference 2027, hosted by the Diaconale Leefgemeenschap Bethanië in the Netherlands.

Under the theme “Trust the Journey – Shape the Future Together”, we will bring together people from across Africa and Europe to share experiences, discover new ideas and shape our future together. Look forward to inspiring conversations, interactive workshops, worship, visits to diaconal projects and plenty of opportunities to meet new people. Our member organisations and their stories will be at the heart of the week.
