Welcome to BIAPT
The British and Irish Association for Practical Theology (BIAPT) was founded in 1994. It grew out of the annual Pastoral Studies Conference which had been held at a number of centres for more than twenty years. The annual conference continues to be of importance to Association members. The new organization ensures continuity of themes and interests in the conferences, and in addition is developing new lines of work in the field of practical theology.
