An ambitious year-long programme of lectures, debates, music and performances examining the meaning of life and death will be launched at the Southbank Centre in London on Monday with a talk by the renowned physicist Stephen Hawking.
The Belief and Beyond Belief festival is intended to explore what it means to be human in the 21st century with a wide range of participants from faith communities as well as those of no faith.
