Thanks for tipping me off to this site, Kate. I already loved Prof. Eck & her pluralism project. But I wasn't aware that she/they had a Ning network for HS religion teachers, too!

About the Pluralism Project

The Pluralism Project: World Religions in America is a decade-long research project at Harvard University that seeks to engage students in studying the new religious diversity in the United States. The overall aims of the Pluralism Project are:

1) To document and better understand the changing contours of American religious demography

2) To study the religious communities themselves

3) To explore the ramifications and implications of America's new plurality through case studies of particular cities and towns

4) To discern, in light of this work, the emerging meanings of religious "pluralism," both for religious communities and for public institutions, and to consider the real challenges and opportunities of a public commitment to pluralism in the light of the new religious contours of America.
