Theological Training for Public Life of the Church
The Institute continues the work of the Resource and Research Center of the Euro-Asian Accrediting Association (EAAA). Established in 1997, the EAAA, from the beginning of its activity, initiated and supported various resource and research projects aimed at ensuring the quality of theological higher education, as well as developing standards and procedures for accreditation.
Mission
We are committed to creating and fostering an open academic and educational community in which Evangelical Protestant theological scholars can collectively contribute to developing an evangelical intellectual culture through participation in rigorous theological research in order to produce relevant theological knowledge, promote its dissemination, and enhance its impact.
Values
Gospel
Loyalty to the classical theological foundations of the world evangelical movement as reflected in the Lausanne Covenant (1974).
Academe
Intellectual autonomy and freedom in research, high-quality education, no bureaucracy, opportunity to publish academic research, and advancement of independent thinking.
Openness
Openness to other religions, confessional and non-denominational communities, openness to changes and dynamics of global processes for a new transformational experience and enrichment of religious tradition.
Dialogue
Impartial, constructive dialogue between theology and science, teachers and students, and church and academy, aimed at solving critical theological problems.
