FN4M Refugee Week Interfaith Dialogue

If Faith Communities embrace the courage of Refugees, how can we ensure that they are made welcome and supported in their new life?

So many of our communities were established with and by refugees and migrants to our country. What are the perspectives of faith folk on migration and refugees and how can we contribute positively to the current situation.

Faith Network for Manchester will start with the thoughts of faith leaders involved in work supporting refugees and open the dialogue to hear the range of opinions and thoughts of those present.

Join The University of Manchester to discuss how local government can use culture and heritage to craft shared identities in local communities.
