International Master in "Religion, Politics and Global Society" IMRPGS 2023/2024

International Master in "Religion, Politics and Global Society" IMRPGS 2023/2024



ABOUT The “International Master in Religion, Politics and Global Society- IMRPGS :

The idea of the “International Master in Religion, Politics and Global Society- IMRPGS” was born within the framework of a consolidated scientific cooperation, thanks to the PriMED network (composed of 22 universities: 12 Italian and 10 belonging to the OIC-Organization of Islamic Cooperation https://primed-miur.it), founded within the framework of the action of the “Prevention and Interaction Project in the Trans- Mediterranean- Space” PriMED, which was financed through the Call for Applications of the Italian Ministry of University and Research – MUR-OCI-2018 “Creation of networks of Italian universities in the implementation of cooperation agreements between Italian universities and those of OIC-Organization of Islamic Cooperation States” (Executive Decree No. 3089 of 16/11/2018 – ID 82382). The intense framework of the scientific activities of the PriMED Project, but also the various actions addressed to the public sectors and civil society (the professional training of various professional categories, including those of a religious nature, its training activities aimed at a wider public concerning the phenomenon of violent radicalisation and strategies to combat it), have promoted the development of this international study path, involving three units ofthe PriMED network, with the collaboration of professors from other units in other countries. The project also enhances the experience of three rounds (2017-2020) of the “Master in Religions, Politics and Citizenship”, implemented by the University of Eastern Piedmont and the University of Padua, with the collaboration of the Instituto de Investigaciones y Estudios Superiores de Granada. The new didactic proposal, the IMRPGS, in fact, is conceived as the continuation of this last Master, but brought to a higher degree of internationalization with the entry of the International University of Rabat.
