When Religions Contribute to Education for a more Fraternal Humanity

What resources are religions endowed with to educate for a more fraternal humanity? To respond to this question, a study day was organised on February 24th 2020 at the Pontifical Gregorian University and in collaboration with the PISAI amongst representatives of various religions, including a Christian, a Muslim, a Jew, a Hindu, a Buddhist and an exponent of the traditional African religions. This volume of the Series Interreligious and Intercultural Investigations brings together the conferences of the experts who have reflected on the role of religions in education and formation in an increasingly globalized and complex world where diversity presents itself as a real challenge for living together.

Quelles ressources possèdent les religions pour éduquer à la fraternité universelle ? Pour répondre à cette question, une Journée d’étude a été organisée le 24 février 2020 à l’Université pontificale Grégorienne et en collaboration avec le PISAI entre spécialistes et représentants de différentes religions dont un chrétien, un musulman, un juif, un hindou, un bouddhiste et un membre des religions traditionnelles africaines. Ce numéro de la Série Interreligious and Intercultural Investigations rassemble les conférences des experts qui ont réfléchi sur le rôle des religions dans l’éducation et la formation dans un monde toujours plus globalisé et complexe où la diversité se présente comme un vrai défi pour le vivre-ensemble.

 

ما هي الموارد التي تمتلكها الأديان من اجل التثقيف على مبدأ الأخويّة الشاملة؟ من أجل الإجابة عن هذا السؤال، نُظِّمَ يوم دراسي في 24 شباط/ فبراير 2020 في الجامعة البابوية الغريغورية بالتعاون مع المعهد البابوي للدراسات العربية والإسلامية شارك فيها مختصون وممثّلون عن الأديان المختلفة بما فيهم شخص مسيحي، وآخر مسلم، ويهودي، وهندوسي، وبوذي، وعضو ممثل للأديان التقليديّة الأفريقيّة. يجمع هذا العدد من سلسلة Interreligious and Intercultural Investigations محاضرات الخبراء الذين بحثوا في دور الأديان في التثقيف والتدريب في عالم يزداد عولمةً وتعقيدًا حيث يظهر التنوّع كتحدّ حقيقي يواجه العيش المشترك.
