**Your position**
How do religion, spirituality and meaning impact the public domain? This is the question of the Public Religion Lab of the Department of Religion and Practice at Tilburg School of Catholic Theology and the Department of Sociology at the Tilburg School of Social and Behavioral Sciences.
This joint research project is driven by interest in the continuation and discontinuation of the public role of religion. The focus is first on what takes place within the field of religion and spirituality, secondly on religious initiatives in other sectors of society, and thirdly on the use of religion as a cultural resource. In doing so, we study the entire spectrum of meaning making: from religion and new spirituality to rituals, sacrality, civil religion, and secularism.
The individual projects deal with three levels: the macro level, such as the social role of religion in relation to the state and the market; the meso level, such as the role of religion in health care, education and social support; and the micro level, the societal importance of religiosity, spirituality, and worldviews.

You are invited to develop a proposal for sociological research within this framework. You will be part of a research team of ten junior and senior researchers.

**Your profile**
- has a PhD in social sciences, religious studies, theology or a related discipline.
- has experience with qualitative research
- is a passionate researcher
- has published in the field of sociology of religion
- is fluent in Dutch and/or English
