ABOUT US
The Dialogue Australasian Network (D.A.N) is a international network committed to improving the quality of values and religious education in Australasian schools. The success of this organisation in its short life is a testimony to the need in this area and the fact that ICT has opened up a way for educators to communicate and support each other in this important area. DAN is only four years old and yet already we have over 400 member institutions, including many educational authorities from the independent, government and catholic sectors. Our aim is to provide an academically rigorous framework for values and religious education in the primary, secondary and tertiary sector. Also we provide a collaborative cross sector forum for educators interested in this area and we develop and distribute quality resources and professional development opportunities that meet the needs of members.
