    The project investigated methods to promote inter-religious understanding, by initiating a fruitful dialogue among students and creating spaces where they can learn the philosophy and values of all religions and enrich the spiritual dimension of life. Through brainstorming sessions and field visits students had unique ‘experiential learning’ opportunity to visit the length and breadth of Kerala state and interact with people of diverse faith. Report of the visits is in the form of a documentary. A seminar was conducted to evolve conflict resolution strategies.
