Research in Sociology of Religion

The project “Science and religion: global perspectives” has as its primary objective to understand how the relationship between science and religion is perceived in various social, political, cultural, and religious contexts. The research emphasizes understanding the relationship between religion and theories of evolution, as well as understanding how the scientific community and society, in general, perceive this relationship.

The University of Birmingham leads the project in collaboration with the Autonomous University of Barcelona. In parallel, the study is also carried out in Germany, Argentina, Australia, the United States, and Sri Lanka in collaboration with universities in each of these countries.
