Abstract

This study explores the impact of integrated Islamic and Western education on youth development outcomes, specifically moral and academic growth, among Muslim youths in Lagos, Nigeria. Employing a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 84 Muslim youths in the Ajegunle-Apapa community through convenience sampling. The "Integrated Education Impact Questionnaire" (α = 0.89) assessed participants' perceptions and developmental outcomes. Although respondents expressed strong approval of integrated education (M = 4.2/5), linear regression analyses revealed no statistically significant predictive effects on either moral (R² = 0.075, p = .210) or academic (R² = 0.054, p = .185) development. The combined model accounted for only 1% of the variance (R² = 0.010), suggesting limited explanatory power. These findings highlight a critical gap between the perceived benefits of educational integration and its measurable impact on youth development. To enhance effectiveness, the study recommends curriculum reform focused on practical relevance and the adoption of longitudinal designs in future research to evaluate long-term developmental outcomes.

Abstract

Nigeria’s multi-religious and pluralistic society continues to experience persistent tensions and conflicts, highlighting the urgent need for educational strategies that promote democratic citizenship and sustainable peace. This study presents a conceptual and curriculum-based analysis of the role of Religious Education (RE) in advancing peacebuilding and democratic engagement in Nigeria. Drawing on existing literature and policy frameworks, the paper critiques the predominantly confessional and doctrinal orientation of current RE curricula, particularly Christian Religious Studies (CRS) and Islamic Religious Studies (IRS), which often marginalise interreligious literacy, critical civic competencies, and peace-oriented content. The analysis identifies key gaps in curriculum design, pedagogical practices, and systemic implementation, including inadequate teacher training, weak integration of peace education, and the challenges associated with merging religious and civic education into composite subjects such as “Religion and National Values.” The paper argues for comprehensive curriculum reform that incorporates pluralistic perspectives, embeds peace education across disciplines, and strengthens the nexus between religious ethics, human rights, and democratic citizenship. It further emphasises the adoption of dialogic and participatory pedagogies, alongside strengthened school–community partnerships, to enhance contextual relevance and social cohesion. The study concludes that a reconceptualised and inclusive Religious Education framework can serve as a strategic tool for nurturing ethically grounded and socially responsible citizens capable of contributing to Nigeria’s democratic consolidation and long-term peace.
