Abstract

Despite the strong influence of religion in today’s world, religious education at university is rather sparse. Universities must be proactive in overcoming negative prejudices and combating symbolic and religious illiteracy that curbs appreciation of other cultural realities. This paper carries out a diagnosis of future social and educational agents in order to discover their attitudes to the challenge that they will have to face in the fostering of intercultural and interreligious dialogue. The results would lead us to believe that initial and continuous education should be introduced in order to foment a profound understanding of the religious dimension.
