Hindu Council UK (HCUK) is committed to raising awareness of faith communities to promote understanding among people of different religious and non-religious beliefs. HCUK wholeheartedly supports interfaith week as it gives opportunities to create a better future and put an end to discrimination and hatred; it brings different faiths and backgrounds together to learn from each other and celebrate.
Through the interfaith week activities we can unite in common cause and promote mutual respect between different religions and beliefs. Interfaith dialogues help to diffuse tensions that result from misunderstandings about the faith beliefs of other religions. It promotes harmony between all people regardless of their faith.
Interfaith week activities highlight core values that are shared by all religions – values like compassion, respect, love hope and peace. These core values are necessary for cohabiting peaceful lives among all communities.
Please mark this year’s Inter faith Week in the 2nd week of November with activities and dialogue to celebrate inclusion with diversity and promote peace and harmony among all faith communities.
