Summary/Abstract: This article explores the role of education in promoting religious pluralism and collective values in a social landscape dominated by individualism and extremism. In a world where religious polarization and tensions are amplified by growing individualism, education becomes an essential tool for cultivating mutual understanding and respect. The paper emphasizes the importance of developing a curriculum that reflects cultural and religious diversity, providing students with critical thinking skills, empathy and global awareness. At the same time, the article analyzes the risks of an education lacking a pluralistic orientation, which can contribute to extremism and weaken social cohesion. In conclusion, pluralist education is presented as an effective antidote to radicalization tendencies, with the role of promoting harmony and understanding in a diverse and interdependent society.
