"Der wissenschaftliche Diskurs muss kunftig durch das Praktizieren von Inter- und Transdisziplinaritat, Inter- und Transkontextualitat, forschungsorientierter Problemzentrierung und reflexivem Lernen (Was?, Wozu?) weiterentwickelt werden."

Sie zielen darauf ab, den Horizont religionspadagogischer Arbeit durch die Offnung zu anderen Religionen und Kulturen und durch die Zusammenarbeit mit nichttheologischen Disziplinen und Fachern zu weiten und so zur Konzeptualisierung religioser Bildung im Spannungsfeld von Religionsfreiheit, Religionskompetenz und Religionsdialog beizutragen.
