  <dc:description xmlns:ns0="xml" ns0:lang="en">Spiritual care - recognised by the WHO as a dimension of health - has grown significantly as European societies become more religiously diverse, individualised, and secular, prompting a need for new models of interprofessional and interreligious cooperation. This study examines the professionalisation of Muslim spiritual care in public institutions in Switzerland and Bosnia-Herzegovina, focusing on three sectors: the armed forces, healthcare, and prisons. Based on 22 semistructured interviews and a joint, praxis-oriented research design, it identifies the institutional frameworks, everyday practices, and key challenges shaping spiritual care in two distinct yet connected national contexts. When conducting the interviews, legal, country-specific and institution-specific conditions were taken into account.</dc:description>
