Excerpt

This special section of the Journal of Religion and Health derives from a workshop held in July 2017 at the Centro Incontri Umani, Ascona, Switzerland. Ascona is by the side of Lago Maggiore, close to the Italian border, and the Centro is set in a beautiful garden overlooking the lake (Fig. 1). It is a small private anthropological research centre which was set up some years ago by Angela Hobart in her family home in Ascona, Switzerland, in memory of her parents. It hosts visiting scholars, and holds conferences, workshops, and other activities.
