Religious Diversity & Dialogue

How may interfaith understanding and education about religious diversity help address or prevent hostility toward religious minorities?

Prejudice and stereotypes based on religious identity can lead to exclusion, discrimination, and social tensions. It may  escalate to group hostility, violence or even mass atrocities. Religious minorities may be particularly at risk.

On this page, you will find research-based resources, particularly audio-visual tools such as films and expert interviews exploring the importance of religious diversity and ways to foster dialogue and respect. These materials present key concepts, challenges, and opportunities for interfaith engagement. We particularly explore whether recognition and participation of religious minorities contribute to the peaceful co-existence in a diverse society.

Whether you are an educator, student, or working for civil society organisation, this page offers insights to help you navigate and contribute to more inclusive communities.
