| Summary: | With migration, national borders are challenged and negotiated. These borders should be conceptualised as new spaces of possibilities, of encounters between groups, peoples, and religions. The borders are precarious spaces, yet they hold the potential of creating something new. With this article, I aim to present the initiative A World of Neighbours (AWoN), and its grassroots-based practices, and attempt at pointing to and discussing some overarching themes. One central framework is the optic of borderland religion to investigate what appears when religion and migration intersect. I explore how interpretations and expressions of borderland religions may challenge borders, ultimately pointing to possibilities of acts of citizenship. |
