The framework of a summer school allows for concentrated and extended learning that is not possible during the academic year. The lectures and discussions take place within the matrix of an interfaith community. The summer school aims at creating a small-scale Elijah community for a period of two weeks. The classroom functions as a place of inter-religious contact. The various teachers are present throughout the course of study, so that different perspectives are brought to bear upon the studied material. The classroom is thus transformed into a space of inter-religious encounter.
