In the 14th episode of our series (Re-)Shaping Europe, Gil Shohat talks to two participants from our current program year: Pauline Pautz, who is participating in our programme for the first time, and Lena Salewski, who has already been a participant in DialoguePerspectives since 2019.
In the conversation, our two participants share their experiences of working in different interreligious-worldview contexts and talk about the different visibility of religious life in France and Germany. The main focus will be on the two programmes in which Lena and Pauline have participated: the French initiative Coexister, and the European programme DialoguePerspectives, with the focus on interreligious-worldview dialogue.
The podcast episode was recorded on February 10, 2022, hence no mention of the current war in Ukraine.
The entire podcast episode (in German) is accessible here.

˝Some wise person once wrote “The whole entire world is a very narrow bridge and the main thing is to have no fear at all.” I feel that thanks to DialoguePerspectives the world is becoming a network of interconnected bridges that we are building between each other together. Beautiful bridges thanks to which we can try to create a world together, a world free from prejudices and fear.
