Encountering the Other: Ireland and Emerging Religious Diversity (S23-31)

Module Description

With Jude Lal Fernando, John O’Grady, Swami Purnananda, Myozan Kodo, Arslaan Khan, Kathleen McGarvey

Meeting the religious other is a new experience for many of us. Even though respect for diversity is becoming the norm, there is a challenge many face in schools, workplaces and communities in understanding one another’s faith and how it is lived. This module aims at developing that understanding through the expertise of interfaith scholars and practitioners. From an inter-religious perspective, it will explore different ways of being human and how to be religious by focusing on the lived reality of faith.
