A center for interreligious study and interfaith dialogue in Rome, Italy
A partnership between The Russell Berrie Foundation and the Pontifical University of St Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum), The John Paul Center for Interreligious Dialogue builds bridges between Christian, Jewish, Muslim and other religious traditions by providing the next generation of religious leaders with the opportunity to comprehensively study interfaith issues at the Angelicum. Located in Rome, th
e Angelicum is an ecclesiastical Dominican center where 150 professors from 30 countries, and 1200 students from 90 countries work and study in Theology, Philosophy, Canon Law and Social Sciences. Past graduates have gone on to hold positions of leadership in the Catholic Church, among them, Blessed John Paul II. The Russell Berrie Foundation has engaged the Institute for International Education (IIE) to administer this initiative. IIE is among the world's most experienced international education and training organizations. Each year, over 20,000 men and women from 175 countries participate in IIE programs, including the Fulbright Program. The Russell Berrie Foundation (RBF) carries on the values of the late Russell Berrie: promoting the continuity of the Jewish people, fostering religious understanding and pluralism, supporting humanistic medical care and celebrating unsung heroes.
