SONGS
This CCRL-themed song was created by participants in the Cross-Cultural Religious Literacy for Peace Training Program organized by the Leimena Institute, the Sasakawa Peace Foundation, and the Dr. J.B. Sitanala Christian Education Development Foundation, with support from the Protestant Church of Maluku, the Templeton Religion Trust, and the Sombar Negeri Maluku Foundation.
In addition to producing a CCRL-themed song, these teachers from Christian and Islamic backgrounds in Maluku were equipped with an understanding of the importance of religious and cultural literacy as an effort to foster peace in Ambon, as well as skills in developing Teaching Modules/School Programs that integrate the values of Cross-Cultural Religious Literacy.
