The ambitious Agenda 2030 and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serve as the framework for this exploration, discussing questions such as: What role does religion play in poverty and poverty alleviation? How does religion inspire people in combatting gender inequality? What is religion's role in fueling conflict and which resources can religion offer for peace and reconciliation? Based on the conviction that not one single faith tradition or discipline can adequately address the complexity of current global issues, this book brings in the perspectives of different faith traditions and different disciplines. Combining cutting-edge research with case studies and concrete implications for academics, policy makers and practitioners, this concise and easily accessible volume helps to build bridges between these different actors and their engagement. It serves as the introductory volume to the series 'Religion Matters: On the Significance of Religion in Global Issues'"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aReligion matters. 606 $aHuman rights$xReligious aspects 606 $aGlobalization$xReligious aspects 606 $aSustainable development$xReligious aspects 615 0$aHuman rights$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aGlobalization$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aSustainable development$xReligious aspects. 676 $a201.723 700 $aSchliesser$b Christine$f1977-$01271718 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910676687603321 996 $aOn the Significance of Religion for the SDGs$93364101 997 $aUNINA
