Sažetak
Life in a multicultural, multinational and multireligious context has become a reality nowadays. This article is to show the development of religious dimension of the intercultural education in public schools from the time it was introduced, following the measures and suggestions of the Council of Europe education policy, until its implementation in local context, based on examples of good practice and results of relevant international researches with a concluding comment on the existing situation and future development measures in Croatian education system. So far all international researches have pointed to the need for better training of students with regard to the understanding of religious diversity in the world, as well as the need for teacher training in improving the quality of lessons on these themes. It is a challenging task which requires the creators of education policy to deal with the new intercultural and interreligious challenges and needs, and new approaches and methods form teachers. Croatian society with all its institutions has to seriously and intelligently start dealing with the same challenges and assignments.
