On 25-27 November, a unique, international project will start at the Krzyżowa Foundation. Its theme will be the integration potential of monotheistic religions for today's Europe. For the first time in the history of the Foundation, representatives of all three monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity and Islam will meet in Krzyżowa. Due to the situation related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the meeting will be conducted online.

European societies today experience various tensions and divisions. This challenge also applies to monotheistic religions - Judaism, Christianity and Islam - for centuries inextricably linked with European history. Religions can strengthen antagonisms in society, but they also have an integrating effect on them.

In response to this challenge, the Krzyżowa Foundation for Mutual Understanding in Europe is launching a new conceptual and educational project aimed at developing opportunities for activities to promote integration, solidarity and a culture of dialogue in civil society.
