Description
Summary:Although different religions in Zambia have peacefully co-existed, the Zambian religious pluralistic society has hardly been related to notions of covenantal pluralism. Using the work of the Zambia Interfaith Networking Group (ZINGO), a multi-faith organization working around HIV and AIDS and other developmental issues in Zambia, this essay reflects on the reality of co-existing peacefully amid diversity through multi-faith collaborations addressing societal problems. It argues that covenantal pluralism is not only relevant for addressing shared societal problems, but also necessitated by the very shared problems which call for the need for peaceful co-existence.
