:
Non-Discrimination Laws and Religious Freedom: Current Conflicts and Future Directions
 
Duration
:
2007-2009
Funding
:
$162,000
Chief Investigators

Carolyn Evans and Beth Gaze
 
Project Summary
:
Achieving the right balance between adequately protecting religious freedom while staying true to principles of non-discrimination is far from easy.  This project will advance understanding and analysis of religious freedom and equal treatment in Australia, in principle, in law and empirically.  In the context of community tensions along ethno-religious lines, it will benefit Australia to have the issues at stake described and clarified.  The project will identify the relevant interests at stake and develop policy recommendations for their protection.  The aim is to contribute to inter-religious (and inter-cultural) harmony, as an element of safeguarding Australia.
