Faith, in and between, communities: How are faith communities responding to changing local needs?

Third Sector Research Centre and the Faith Based Regeneration Network UK are holding this free seminar, including lunch, at the University of Birmingham on Monday 30 June from 12.45pm to 4pm.

These are controversial times for faith based organisations. From foodbanks to the prevention of violent extremism they are expected to play an increasingly important role in the delivery of a wide range of Government policies, from responding to welfare reform, through to connecting diverse communities and the development of faith schools.

Yet, despite this increased role, there has been little research into how faith groups are involved at the local level with communities, or effective interfaith work at a wider policy level.

Places are limited on this workshop. To book visit www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/faith-in-and-between-communities-how-are-faith-communities-responding-to-changing-local-needs-tickets-11602211527?dm_t=0,0,0,0,0&dm_i=A1N,2HIJ7,5J5WNP,923ET,1.
