The Parables as Persuasive Narratives Conference will be held 22–24 March 2023 in Joensuu, Finland. The conference focuses on the synoptic parables in their literary narrative context while engaging other interrelated matters. The research unit Parables as Persuasive Narratives, funded by the Academy of Finland, is the main organizer of the upcoming conference.

The East Meets West Conference series is organized by the School of Theology at the University of Eastern Finland (UEF) and conducted in close cooperation with the UEF Borders, Mobilities and Cultural Encounters (BOMOCULT) research community.
