Siobhán Garrigan is the first female Professor of Theology in Ireland, where she holds the Loyola Chair at Trinity College Dublin. Her early career involved living with people experiencing homelessness and themes of poverty and injustice and how they affect belonging characterize her work. She has a particular interest in the potential role of ritual in social transformation. Her last book was The Real Peace Process: Worship, Politics, and the End of Sectarianism, and her next is A Theology of Home in a Time of Homelessness.
