Germany hosts Religions For Peace 10th World Assembly for 1st time in Aug.
Germany will host Religions for Peace 10th World Assembly, the
world’s most representative, multi-religious gathering of religious
communities, for the first time next month.
The event will be held in the German city of Lindau on
August 20-23.
The Religions for Peace 10th World Assembly, under the theme
“Caring for our Common Future ̶ Advancing Shared Well-being,” will be global in
scale, multi-stakeholder in composition and action-oriented.
Some 800 senior religious leaders, youth and women of faith
from over 100 countries will be joined by 100 representatives of governments,
intergovernmental organizations and civil society groups to forge
multi-stakeholder partnerships for the common good.
Previous Religions for Peace Assemblies have resulted in
highly effective multi-religious projects in peacebuilding and development in
all word regions.
Every 5-7 years, Religions for Peace convenes a World
Assembly for the purpose of forging a deep moral consensus on contemporary
challenges, electing a new World Council and advancing multi-religious action
across and beyond the Religions for Peace network.
