SUMMARY:Islamic religious education in Europe and the United States
DESCRIPTION:DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen: Thursday\, April 2\, 201
 5\, 2:00 to 3:30 PM\n\nWhere: The Brookings Institution\, Saul/ZIlkha Roo
 m\, 1775 Massachusetts Ave\, NW\, Washington\, DC\n\nWhat:\n\nIslamic reli
 gious education in Europe and the United States has become a subject of in
 tense debate after Muslims raised in the West carried out attacks against 
 their fellow citizens. People worry their states are doing too little or t
 oo much to shape the spiritual beliefs of private citizens.\n\nIn her new 
 Brookings paper\, Jenny Berglund explains the differences in publicly-fund
 ed Islamic education in Europe and the United States. Her report details e
 xisting religious education programs\, teacher training\, and ongoing poli
 tical debates\, grounded in the historical and religious norms of the coun
 tries. Berglund also recommends good practices for governments to further 
 their citizens’ knowledge about Islam and promote inclusive citizenship 
 and respect.\n\nOn April 2\, the Project on U.S. Relations with the Islami
 c World will host Berglund and an American expert on Islamic religious edu
 cation to discuss current programs and best practices in Europe and the Un
 ited States. After the discussion\, the panelists will take audience quest
 ions.\n\nJoin the conversation on Twitter using #IslamicEd.\n\n\n\n\n\n
