How do we live together as Christians and Muslims in the West Midlands?

Come and explore these questions with us:

• What kind of friendships can we build locally?
• What does our society think of religion?
• How are we including women and young people?
• How do mission/da’wah and dialogue fit together?
• Is religion manly enough?

These are some of the questions we will answer together with leaders, influencers and future leaders from across the region.
