Last June, the Kircher Network’s HEST cluster on Christian-Muslim Relations, led by the Faculty of Theology at Loyola Andalucía University and in partnership with Universität Innsbruck, Université Saint-Joseph, and Theologische Hochschule Sankt Georgen, organized the Study Week «Bridging Intercultural Societies for Peace in Turbulent Times: Christian and Muslim Relations» in Granada, Spain.
This academic initiative aimed to deepen the understanding of Christian-Muslim encounters during the historical period of Al-Andalus, a remarkable era in the Iberian Peninsula’s history known for its cultural and religious diversity. Twenty-three students from different disciplines and scholars from eight universities and centres within the Kircher Network attended the study week, engaging in meaningful discussions and gaining insight.
