Guidelines for encouraging dialogue between Christians and Muslims in Germany

Christians and Muslims have plenty of opportunities to cross paths with each other in our society. This can be at the workplace, in their local neighborhoods, during their free time or in the course of joint activities. These encounters often take place naturally and smoothly. For people of diverse religious or cultural backgrounds, to live together in such harmony is also in the fundamental interest of the Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD) and the Coordination Council of Muslims in Germany (KRM). The present guidelines can play a part in fostering and encouraging Christian-Muslim dialogue in everyday life and in practice.
