About

Explore the value of cooperation between faiths and learn how the five main world religions’ core beliefs relate to each other with Religions From The Inside - Improving Interreligious Dialogue at Università della Svizzera Italiana by FutureLearn.

Overview

This short course, led by the Faculty of Theology of Lugano in collaboration with USI, will develop your knowledge of what interfaith dialogue means from a philosophical and epistemological point of view, and teach how to enjoy productive interfaith dialogue.

Understand the value of a multi-faith society

Until a few decades ago, it seemed secularisation processes were inevitable and that religion would be confined to the private conscience. However, the new millennium saw religions return – both as places for spiritual reflection, as well as movements that could affect the public sphere.

Religions From The Inside - Improving Interreligious Dialogue at Università della Svizzera Italiana by FutureLearn will enhance your understanding of the relationship between different faiths and help you to explore why religions play such an active role in promoting peaceful coexistence among humans.
