Abstract
Dialogue and engaging with the religious Other are essential questions that warrant even greater attention in the Christian communities at large. In 2020, the World Council of Churches and the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue jointly published a document on interreligious solidarity titled Serving a Wounded World in Interreligious Solidarity: A Christian Call to Reflection and Action During COVID-19 and Beyond. This document serves as an exhortation for Christians and all people of goodwill to collaborate and cultivate a world where fraternity and the unwavering dignity of every human being motivate our actions. Meanwhile, the document offers a comprehensive account of a Christian approach to religious diversity, which can prove very valuable for the faith communities. This article discusses the document through the lens of the philosophies of dialogue presented by David Bohm and Martin Buber. It analyzes how the document portrays the approach to the religious Other and the principles that underpin encounters and dialogue with them.
