A new website developed by Harvard’s Pluralism Project with support from the Rappaport Institute and others documents how new immigrants and others have made the religious life of Boston far more complex and textured than ever before. The site, which is the fifth iteration of a project launched by Professor Diana Eck in 1990, includes extensive maps, directory listings, introductory materials on religious traditions, and multimedia elements.
