Role of religion being examined by the Polis Center

The Polis Center Project on Religion and Urban Culture, supported by grants from Lilly Endowment Inc, is examining and encouraging discussion about the role of religion in Indianapolis, and by implication, in other mid-sized American cities.

Through community-based partnerships, the Polis Center, located at IUPUI, explores the ways people of faith have helped define, sustain and transform urban community.

The project also seeks to create a civic arena for examining issues of religion and community. Now in its third phase, the Project on Religion and Urban Culture draws on the partnerships forged among the university, religious and civic institutions and neighborhoods.
