In September 2016, the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education (BMB) established a Special Research Area ‚Interreligiosity’ at the Private University College for Teacher Education Vienna/Krems (KPH). The Research Area is supposed to provide an empirical, context-sensitive basis for enhancing interreligious competence in teacher education.

Within the context of the research cooperation RELIGION_PLURALITÄT, SIR joins forces with the research professorship interreligiosity (HS-Prof. Dr. Bettina Brandstetter) at the Institute for Research and Development of the Private University of Education, Diocese of Linz.
