‘Inter Faith Week’ will run from 15 to 21 November 2009 with a launch the preceding week. Its aims are:
- to strengthen good inter faith relations at all levels
- to increase awareness of the different and distinct faith communities in the UK, in particular celebrating and building on the contribution which their members make to their neighbourhoods and to wider society
- to increase understanding between people of religious and non-religious belief
The Week is being facilitated by the Inter Faith Network for the UK www.interfaith.org.uk and Communities and Local Government but will be community-led, with local people and groups of different backgrounds holding their own events and to highlight work going on to promote understanding between people of different faiths and beliefs.
