Aspen Institute Religion & Society Program

Aspen Institute Religion & Society Program The Religion & Society Program envisions a society where religious and non-religious people thrive, respecting and engaging together across beliefs.

The mission of the Aspen Institute's Religion & Society Program is to strengthen the understanding of religion’s role in advancing equity and the common good by shifting ideas, policies, and practices. Launched in 2012, the Religion & Society Program focuses on bridging the gap between ideas and impact, building the capacity of faith-based leaders, galvanizing philanthropic investment, and serving

as a national knowledge hub that informs and connects leaders from various fields and worldviews. By emphasizing network and community building, the Program is creating and amplifying connections that can break down barriers for generations to come.
