A mixed methods approach combining qualitative interviews with quantitative survey data to understand perceptions of religious pluralism among Ugandans. Interviews revealed a nuanced understanding where 70% of respondents viewed interfaith dialogue as crucial for resolving conflicts, while surveys indicated that 65% of Ugandan youth had at least one close friend from another faith. The study highlights the potential for interfaith engagement to foster social harmony and mutual respect in Uganda's diverse religious environment.
