RELATIONS BETWEEN THE RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES AND THE STATE - Foundation Office Kosovo
Seminar
Details
This year we continue our close cooperation on the topic with the different religious communities in the Republic of Kosovo and the European Think Tank partner (CES) Centre for European Studies from Brus-sels.
The two-day seminar aims to create awareness among the young population for religious and ethnic diversity and to build tolerance, as well as to contribute to the democratization process of the country by promoting freedom of expression, inter-ethnic and inter-religious dialogue and pluralism. The target group of the seminar consists of representatives of the religious communities, academics and young believers.
Through open debates, workshops, study visits of religious objects and direct contacts between the groups, the participants will be provided with the necessary communication context for developing mutual religious understanding and tolerance.
This activity will enable the participants to experience different cultural and religious values and deconstruct their stereotypes with an opportunity for improving religious dialogue, tolerance and cooperation. Furthermore, we expect this seminar to have a multiplicative effect in their social environments, particularly among their colleagues and peers respectively.
