According to the 2012 Pew Research Study, religious hostility has reached a six-year high. Over 60 countries worldwide have seen the level of social hostility rise to “high” or “very high” levels.
Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) wants to be part of the solution. From February 4-5, 2020, in accordance with the United Nations World Interfaith and Harmony Week, KPU’s Multi-Faith Centre will host its 6th-Annual World Interfaith Harmony Week Festival at both its Richmond and Surrey, BC campuses.
A talk on Syrian interfaith traditions and contemporary challenges delivered by Rahim Othman of the Syrian Canadian Council of BC.
