The European Wergeland Center in cooperation with Oslo University College is organizing the 
seminar "Religious diversity in intercultural education - policies and practices" on the 2nd of March, 2010.

Which place do religions and beliefs have in different approaches towards intercultural education? Which are the consequences of these differences with regard to education policies and educational practices?

These questions will be addressed in a lecture by Prof. Robert Jackson, an international expert in the field of religious diversity from the University of Warwick. Jackson will give an outline of the differences between OSCE and Council of Europe’s approaches towards religious diversity in the light of educational questions.


A presentation of the Oslo University College’s INTERKULT project will show that many of the assumptions to be found in the policy field are mirrored in this intercultural practice.

Based on these presentations, we invite to a discussion about the place of religious diversity in intercultural approaches in the educational sector and possible improvements in taking this aspect into consideration.



Date: 2nd of March, from 13:00-16:00
Venue: Oslo University College, P46-PA113 Athene 1 (Pilestredet 46, 1. etg)
