World Interfaith Harmony Week Event 📅 Friday, February 20, 2026 ⏰ 9–10 AM PT / 12–1 PM ET Join the North American Interfaith Network (NAIN) and the Interfaith Center at Miami University for a timely conversation: Is the Harmony in the Room with Us? Interfaith spaces are often framed around peace, dialogue, and harmony—but how well does that language reflect our current local, national, and global realities? This conversation offers a candid reflection on where we stand today, questioning whether the rhetoric of “harmony” can obscure deeper tensions, inequalities, and unresolved harms within interfaith spaces. By facing these harder truths, we ask what deeper wisdom our traditions offer—for ourselves and for the world. Speakers: Bandhu Bandhu is serving as Interfaith Manager for the Arizona Faith Network; as member on the International Youth Committee of Religions for Peace; as a Global Council Trustee from North America for the United Religions Initiative; and as Chair for the North American Interfaith Network. Vern Barnet Minister Emeritus of the Center for Religious Experience and Study (CRES), which he founded in 1982. Founder and longtime convener of the Kansas City Interfaith Council, now serving as convener emeritus. A lifelong leader in interfaith community-building and spiritual dialogue. Tahil Sharma (he/they) Interfaith activist for over a decade, drawing from Hindu and Sikh traditions to engage in intersectional solidarity, justice-oriented dialogue, and community organizing.
