Written paper.
The course aims to provide essential skills for working in highly multicultural and multi-religious contexts, particularly but not only those characterised by a significant Muslim presence. By means of an interdisciplinary methodological-didactic approach, the course intends to encourage personal in-depth study of the topics dealt with (learning skills) while the final written test aims to assess the students' adequate communicative ability (communication).
The course is structured in four lectures: the first is general and introductory, the second dedicated to the topic of women in multicultural society, the third to the topic of health and religions, and the fourth to culturally oriented crimes.
The course is conducted through a total of 16 hours of face-to-face lectures and intends to encourage the active participation of students through an inductive method that, starting from concrete examples, also linked to the local context, enables students to read current events through the filter of an adequate and reflective scientific knowledge of social issues. The course will be enriched by the contribution of specialised knowledge and expertise offered by guests from the university world, public administrations, religious communities and civil society.
The professor is available to prepare ‘PDPs’ upon reasoned request.
