This International Conference on Values and Religious Education (ICVRE) is a step in this educational journey. It is important for educators, researchers, students, and facilitators of values and religious education in public and private basic and higher education levels to take time to gather, share, present and discuss, listen, and learn among themselves experiences and challenges, practices and programs, current perspectives and research findings that will help improve values and religious formation programs.
