Abstract
The article examines the contribution of MICs in the coexistence of different religious groups at local level. It presents the basic problems encountered by Christians and Muslim migrants in Greece and proceeds by analysing the potential contribution of MICs in the harmonious coexistence of different religious groups. MICs are seen as providing a forum for intercultural dialogue and for acknowledging religious diversity as a necessary and sufficient condition for the inclusion of migrants.
