Exploring Religion, Spirituality and Cultural Traditions Around Across the Globe

Religion and spirituality play central roles in one’s identity. These oft-unexplored and -unquestioned tenets of faith guide our traditions, our family structures and our laws. Governments, media and other institutions interact with, react to and protect religious communities in different ways throughout the world. Join us this fall for an exploration of the diversity of world religions from their origins and ancient practices to misconceptions and representations in modern life.
