Learning objectives
Contents
The “Religious pluralism and European integration” module addresses the
issue of pluralism and religions in multicultural European societies.
While religious matters remain at the margins of EU competence,
questions of religious pluralism and religious discrimination are
increasingly reaching European courts and policy makers. Both are called
to foster and build upon an inclusive European citizenry, respecting
and promoting the diversity of the peoples of Europe. The issues of religious pluralism, religious freedom and religious discrimination are increasingly addressed by the European Courts (European Court of Human Rights and Court of Justice), and this trend is going to increase as a result of the EU's future accession to the ECHR and the now binding nature of the Charter of Fundamental Rights, which also protects the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion (Art. 9 ECHR, Art. 10 Charter of Rights).
