Professor Sahar Amer will speak about “Muslim Immigrants in Europe ” using the websites developed in CES on The Veil and Francophone Identities as well as the following documents: - Islam in Europe (lecture) - Islam in Europe (statistics sheet)
Most of the world's billion Muslims live outside of the Middle East , and the four most populous Islamic countries are located to the east of the region. Understanding the global diversity of Muslim communities is increasingly important as Islam becomes a priority subject for international education. The presenters at this session, five scholars affiliated with area studies centers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill , will offer introductions to Muslim populations in Africa and the Americas , Eastern and Western Europe , and South and Southeast Asia.
