The Forum Glaube Wissenschaft Kunst (Forum GWK) is a Catholic forum in Graz, Austria, linked to the Katholische Hochschulgemeinde Graz and the Diocese of Graz-Seckau. It brings together people interested in intellectual debate to discuss Christianity's role in church and society, and in science, art and social questions. Its work includes public lectures, discussion evenings, workshops, retreats and cultural excursions such as trips to the Venice Biennale, with a focus on human rights, social justice and dialogue between political and ideological camps. The forum also runs the annual Fastenschale project, handmade ceramic bowls whose proceeds fund charitable projects. Its events are open to the public and to members, and it is part of the adult education work of the Katholische Aktion Österreich.
