PROGRAM CLUSTER
Family
Across the world, there are many different beliefs and traditions regarding the configuration and extent of a family. Family could be defined as the small nuclear unit of parents and children, or the extended family that includes several generations or even the larger network of kinship. Extended ever further outward, all peoples are related to each other in one global human family. In all societies, the family is a binding and vital social and spiritual unit. This cluster identifies those programs that are especially concerned with family matters: the raising of children
to be grounded in a religious or spiritual tradition but with a spirit of interreligious openness; the rewards and challenges of interreligious marriages and strategies for building harmony within them; ways to strengthen bonding within a family, and prevention and healing strategies for family-destroying traumas like domestic violence and child abuse. Come learn about family dynamics in different traditions, and take new wisdom home to your own family, wherever they may be.
