The Religious Literacy and the Professions Initiative (RLPI) offers Harvard students opportunities to explore how deep knowledge of religion can enhance work in professions that have long been considered secular. These include local government, organizing and activism, humanitarian action, journalism, and media and entertainment. RLPI courses, internships, and networking opportunities invite students to consider how careers in these professions can serve to advance the public understanding of religion.
