Workshop

Join us for a one-day workshop on the subject of 'Reconciling Religion, Gender and Sexual Orientation' based on our award-winning suite of Belieforama Religious Diversity and Anti-discrimination training programmes.

Any examination of the challenges faced by those living in religiously diverse societies shows that some of the most sensitive topics revolve around issues of gender and sexuality, i.e. the role of men and women, sexual and reproductive rights, and conflicts of rights (real or perceived) between religious rights and gay rights. We need to find productive ways to transform the discourse around these issues, raise awareness of other perspectives and views, and find ways in which they can be reconciled so that all people can express their full identity with mutual respect for our rights and responsibilities.
