Velehrad 2013
Participants from more than 30 countries
The IDC has chosen Velehrad, the famous place of pilgrimage, on purpose. It is closely linked with the tradition of the two Apostles of the Slavs, Sts. Cyril and Methodius. In the year of our conference, one commemorated the fact that 1150 years before, the Patrons of Europe had set out on the mission to the Slavs. The abbey itself was founded by the Cistercians in the 13th century. The place offered a magnificent backstage as well as a programmatic orientation for the conference.
