Welcome to ReliXchange!
A project as part of the German-Egyptian Transformation Partnership
ReliXchange is an inter-religious youth exchange between Germany and Egypt. Together with our Egyptian partner organisation New Horizon Association for Social Development we want to foster intercultural exchange and cooperation between Europe and North Africa and contribute to international and national inter-religious dialogue and understanding. What happens, and where? During the exchange programme 10 Egyptian and 10 German young adults spend together one week in Berlin, Germany (27/10-02/11/14) and one week in Cairo, Egypt (17-23/11/14). What is it about? On the one hand the exchange is about learning about the Abrahamic religions (principles of faith and traditions). Moreover, we will deal with the role and influence of the respective religions in both countries, and are interested particularly in the role and situation of religious minorities. Furthermore, creative methods for advancing inter-religious dialogue will be elaborated in the course of the exchange.
