From Josefina:
How are we transmitting the truths that each religion has - considered absolut- and how does this education reproduce this system of submission against women?

Women have conquered spaces of power in many fields, including politics, but not in religion

From Josefina:

All religious books talk about compassion and mercy but some religious leaders are far away from these fundamental principles manipulating religion in the name of discrimination. 

In every religion, we see a predominant male power over females. There is no equality in religion. When we exclude women, we are violating women's rights. In another workshop, we could go in-depth on the topic of internal discrimination in each religion.

From Fahd: In our group, we have discussed the questions raised about the narratives around discrimination and promoting peace. We have also discussed the challenges and reasons that have led to extremisms in religion.

Among the reasons found, we have talked about economical, social and political factors as well as wrong interpretations of religious texts made by some scholars as driving factors for religious discrimination.

The promotion of democratic changes is needed to reach civic states based on democracy.

Many young people involved in extremism have joined radical groups because of economical reasons.

As members of the coalition, we need to promote inclusive identities and a concept of identity linked to citizenship and not religious pertinence.
