Religions and Relationships: Dealing with Diversity
|
 |
The
2013 EFTRE conference will in Malmø, Sweden from
August 21st to 24th, 2013 |
The
EFTRE conference is aimed at those working with teachers of Religion,
Citizenship or Ethics in schools across Europe. You might be a teacher
in a school, a teacher educator, an advisor of teachers or a researcher
into RE teaching. The pattern of the conference is keynotes, workshops,
seminars and language groups and we are happy to take submissions
for displays.
Religions and relationships are deeply intergrated aereas. Religions create communities and make people come together. Religious traditions have great impact on peoples ideals of family-life, upbringing of children, gender and sexuality. But how does it work in a society with many religions and traditions? Their different religions and habits may create misunderstanding and deep cliffs between people. How can a multi-religious society prosper under the umbrella of The Human Rights? How can school and education support the process of understanding and mutual respect? |
