Research activity and its results, which will take place within the next two years, with the financing of the European Union’s in the framework of the Erasmus + program, are oriented towards the deep analysis of the approach of religious education in the countries involved in the project. Needs on how to integrate religious plurality in the pedagogical model will be identified and defined in primary schools.
