| Zusammenfassung: | Although a substantial amount of research has been conducted in the field of religion, spirituality, and health, much still needs to be done. Training of researchers to conduct studies in the field of religion, spirituality, and health is essential for continued academic and methodological rigor. Such training should be globally oriented to ensure both representation and evidence from non-western cultures which is currently lacking. While little attention is given to this area in mainstream contemporary academic curricula, some researchers in the field have provided exceptional leadership in designing programs to train future researchers. In this commentary, the authors who participated in one such training program at Duke University, offer their insights based on a qualitative descriptive analysis of survey responses from a sample of participants. These insights relate to participants' perceptions of the most valuable experiences from a workshop on religion, spirituality, and health, and include recommendations for future content in training programs in this field. The multicultural aspect of the program with researchers, clinicians, and other professionals from 17 different countries was the most enriching aspect of the workshop. One of the key recommendations for future training efforts is to dedicate workshop time for participants to work collaboratively in the design and plan for international and interdisciplinary research projects with guidance from faculty.Please confirm if the author names are presented accurately and in the correct sequence (given name, middle name/initial, family name).
