National Student Interfaith Forum
National Student Interfaith Forum
Sunday 14 February 2010, 10.30am – 4.30pm
St Ethelburga’s Centre for Peace & Reconciliation, London
The National Union of Students (NUS) invites students and students' union officers to attend the first National Student Interfaith Forum.
NUS’s Student Interfaith Project aims to improve the experiences of students of faith at further and higher education by increasing students’ unions awareness of the needs of students of faith through support, information and training; and developing strong inter-faith collaboration between students to enhance campus cohesion by creating space for inter-faith dialogue and activities.
Many students and students’ union officers are active in building understanding about different religious communities, and improving relations between different faith groups on campus. The National Student Interfaith Forum provides the opportunity for students and students' unions to network and support the growth and development of student interfaith activities nationally.
The forum will bring together 30 students and students' union officers to share and develop ideas, gain new skills and knowledge, as well as support the development of training and resources for students' unions. The forum will meet six times over the course of the project (October 2009 – September 2011).
The first National Student Interfaith Forum is taking place on Sunday 14 February, at St Ethelburga’s Centre for Peace and Reconciliation in London. The event is free to attend and travel can be organsied and paid for by NUS.
If you organise interfaith activities at your university or students’ union we would like you to apply to participate in the National Student Interfaith Forum. The forum is open to students and Students' Union Officers. To apply please complete and return the application form by email to Kat Luckock, Student Interfaith Coordinator.
