Coexist is sponsoring, with the Weidenfeld Institute and the British Government, a University of Cambridge Inter-Faith Programme conference on “Islam and Muslims in the World Today”. Bringing together some 150 academics, journalists, faith leaders and politicians from around the world, this conference will address how better to integrate the values of newer faith communities into societies with long-established cultures and traditions. Can countries with new minorities listen to and learn from their values and traditions, rather than simply expecting newcomers to adapt? How can everyone in society gain from this process?
The Conference will take place at Lancaster House in London on 4th and 5th June. Among those participating will be the Prime Minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer, the Prime Minister of Pakistan, the Grand Muftis of Egypt and Bosnia, and many senior academics from Britain and around the world.
