This reader contains lectures held and reports written on the conference on religion, a source for human rights and development cooperation, organized by ICCO, Cordaid and ISS in Soesterberg in September 2005. We hope that this reader will provide you with insights into the way in which people and organizations, especially of non-western origin, find the inspiration and the drive for their day-to-day activities in their religion and spirituality. During the conference some attention was paid to the dark side of religions. Yet since the positive contribution religions make to the promotion of human rights and development is often neglected, the organizations behind the conference wished to focus on this aspect in particular.
