That is why our scientists from different academic disciplines and religious backgrounds research the sources, history, beliefs and contemporary practices of religious traditions.
FRT is a workplace where academics and students of different religious beliefs come together. From Buddhists to Christians and from Muslims to atheists: we enter into a conversation with each other. Differences and controversies are not avoided but taken seriously in dialogue and debate. This is how we train future leaders: for religious communities, education, care and NGOs.
