Wat Tilburg aan stedenschoon tekort komt, maakt de stad weer goed door zijn bedrijvigheid en gezelligheid. Ook heeft de stad een paar zeer interessante musea. Toppunt van Brabantse charme is wellicht ’s-Hertogenbosch, waar het Bourgondische Brabantse leven bijna spreekwoordelijk is.

  • Language of Hope in Europe
    Journal of Christian Education in Korea Vol. 65(2021. 3. 30) : 29-54 DOI: 10.17968/jcek.2021..65.002 Language of Hope in Europe Monique van Dijk-Groeneboer (Professor, Tilburg University, The Netherlands) Michal Opatrny (Professor, South Bohemian University, Budojevice Czech Republic) Eva Escher (Professor, University of Erfurt, Germany) Abstract In Europe, the diversity in religions, cultures, languages and historical backgrounds is enormous. World War II and the Soviet Regime have played a large part in this and the flow of refugees from other continents in- creases the pluralism. How can religious education add to bridging between differences? The language across European countries is different, literally between countries, but also figuratively speaking and even inside individual countries. These differences occur in cultural sense and across age groups as well. Secondary education has the task to form young people to become firmly rooted people who can hold their own in society. It is essential that they learn to examine their own core values and their roots. Recognising their values should be a main focus of religious education. However, schools are currently accommodating increasing numbers of non-religious pupils. What role do religious values still play in this situation? How do pupils feel about active involvement in religious institutions, and about basing life choices on religious beliefs? Can other, non-religious values be detected which could form the basis for value-oriented personal formation? Research of these subjects has been ongoing in the Netherlands for more than twenty years and is currently being expanded to the Czech Republic 30 Journal of Christian Education in Korea and(former East) Germany.
