Experts from various academic disciplines are invited to Nuremberg to discuss two recent empirical studies: 1) A representative opinion poll on people’s attitude towards Religious Education, conducted by the poll agency EMNID (for results of the study klick here); 2) a representative quantitative study among teachers of Protestant RE at Bavarian schools, conducted by RUPRE (for results of the study klick here). The event is conducted by RUPRE in cooperation with the Protestant-Lutheran Church of Bavaria.
Suggested and co-designed by Professor Pirner, the Protestant-Lutheran Church of Bavaria had commissioned the renowned poll agency ENMID with the study. The poll shows that 65 % of the Bavarian population are in favour of RE as an ordinary school subject at all public schools, only 25 % reject it. Most of those who are sceptical of RE indicated to be less or not religious.
