A week long intensive for educators, chaplains, and other professionals ministering and working in Australia’s increasingly diverse contexts, offered at Wollaston Theological College.
The fast pace of churn and change are creating an Australian society which is religiously and culturally superdiverse. Paradoxically, secularisation is simultaneously on the rise, and those identifying as ‘no religion’ – the ‘Nones’ – will soon almost certainly outnumber people of faith. In this unit, we critically examine the current and developing shape of secularisation, as well as the changing conditions of belief producing religiously plural younger generations. Taking a lived religion approach, we further investigate the growing need for critical religious and Culturally and Linguistically Diverse (CALD) literacy, facilitating a deep understanding of diverse worldviews for leaders in faith organisations.
