- Religious education and developing childhood and adolescent competences for pluralism
- Religious education as a location for encountering pluralism and for developing identity
- The position of religions in globalization and migration processes
- Growing fundamentalism and extremism as a challenge for religious education
- Interreligious encounters as a challenge for religious communities
- Dynamic identity as a basis for religious development in children and adolescents
- The role of religious education in the process of integrating refugees and asylum seekers
- Immigrant children and language development in religious education
- Religious education and the ethical foundations of a pluralistic society
Please send proposed titles and abstracts of roughly 300 words, including a short bibliography.
The language of the conference is English.
You will receive notification of the abstract review results by August 30, 2019.
