The
Berkley Center for
Religion, Peace, and World Affairs was created in 2006 as part of the office of
Georgetown University's President. The mission of the Center is to build
knowledge, promote dialogue, and to support action "in the service of peace." On
the site's homepage, visitors will be presented with five primary sections,
including "Programs", "Events", "People", "Media", and "Databases". Many
visitors will want to head straight away for the "Databases" area. Here they
will find resources designed for students, scholars, and citizens which address
faith, gender, and development, along with faith-inspired organizations in the
Muslim world. After having a look there, visitors will want to click on the
"Recent Publications" section. There's some really terrific material here,
including reports on evangelicals and foreign policy, international religious
liberty, and religious pluralism. Finally, visitors who are planning a visit to
Washington, D.C. can click on the "Events" section to learn about upcoming
talks, lectures, and symposia sponsored by the Center.
