Giving and Receiving: Interfaith Giving as an Agent of Peace

In conjunction with the month of Ramadan, the Lien Centre for Social Innovation (LCSI) hosted an online interfaith dialogue exploring the role of faith-based funders and organisations in promoting peace and understanding among multi-faith communities. The session was part of the third discussion in the Giving and Receiving Programme Series aimed at extending conversations around the outcomes of a report by LCSI of the same name.

The session gathered leaders and representatives from various faith-based funders and organisations to explore the different perspectives of giving across four faiths: Islam, Christianity, Buddhism and Baha’i), and how these perspectives are then translated into decisions made around partnering with organisations from different faiths, and funding initiatives that are relevant to their respective faiths.
