ID: 2938 Date of activity: 12/11/2019 End date: 12/11/2019 Name of activity: The Many Colours of : Bath announces plans for National Inter Faith Week 2019 Organisation(s) holding the event: Bath Interfaith Group Short description: A special event is being held in the city of Bath on Tuesday 12th November to celebrate national Inter Faith Week.

Hosted by Bath Interfaith Group, which next year celebrates its 30th anniversary, the event will explore the diversity of the Hindu tradition. Hinduism, thought to be the oldest religion in the world, is full of diversity and colour.

Jane O'Hara, Secretary of Bath Interfaith Group, said: 'As part of the Diwali season, we wanted to do something that not only celebrated the occasion, but would give people living locally the opportunity to find out more about the richness and depth of Hinduism.'

Five speakers from a range of Hindu traditions have been invited to take part in a panel discussion, followed by a Q&A session. The speakers are: - Ashish Rajhansa (Bath Hindu CIC) - Charlotta Chandrika Martinus (Universal Yoga) - Owen Hanner (Mohanji Foundation) - Nathan Hartley (ISKCON) - Cllr Yukteshwar Kumar (B&NES; Council)

The first national Inter Faith Week was held in 2009 at the suggestion of the Inter Faith Network for the UK's Trustees, in response to a report from the (then) Department for Communities and Local Government, which suggested that more needed to be done to bring about cohesion and unity among diverse communities.

Over the last decade, communities across the country have been hosting and coordinating events that celebrate diversity, and encourage people from various religious backgrounds (and none) to come together to learn from one another.

'Our interfaith event in Bath is a chance for us to learn, understand and celebrate diversity together with others,' added Jane.

'The Many Colours of Hinduism: A Panel Discussion' will take place on Tuesday 12th November, 7.30pm at The Weston Hub, Penn Hill Road, Bath (BA1 4EH).

Our annual event (as part of national Inter Faith Week) to bring faith communities together to take action on the climate emergency.

In June 2019, Birmingham City Council declared a 'climate emergency'. The emergency declaration commits the council to 'taking communities with us' in seeking to be net zero by 2030. But how can this be achieved?

This year's Tread Lightly conference will be an attempt to answer that question, by engaging with diverse stakeholders in one local area of Birmingham, to discover what concerns people have, and how that relates to the climate emergency.

Programme

1.30 Optional Tour of Shree Ram Mandir. We are pleased that this will be our first major Footsteps event at a Hindu venue.

One set is a collection of rugs from the Touchstone Centre, Bradford, woven in wool by groups of women from different faiths, in the UK and in Pakistan. Each group was asked to consider: Who are the wise women that have influenced my life? Who are the wise women in my holy text and faith tradition? and What is the wisest piece of advice I have been given? Based on the conversations they had had together each group was then provided with a pack of materials with which to make a rug. Groups have included interfaith forums, schools, Girls Brigade groups and even a book group. The resulting rugs are stunning and have given great opportunities to women who are often side-lined in more formal interfaith dialogue. These rugs give a living testimony to inter faith dialogue, to the place of wisdom in the lives and traditions of different women and - made with different techniques - they are a physical continuation of the history of the woollen industry in this country.

Come and see how these tell stories of tradition, faith, history and place.

ID: 2764 Date of activity: 13/11/2019 End date: 13/11/2019 Name of activity: Arts and Culture - Second Wednesday Event: SPIRIT Organisation(s) holding the event: University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust Short description: Spiritual care is important to all people, not only those who express a religious belief. Patients have a constant need to make sense of their circumstances, to find meaning in the events of their day, their relationships and their life during periods of illness and hospitalisation. Spiritual care recognises the humanity, the uniqueness and the person-hood of everyone.

Art in all its many forms has much to say and much which can support people in both identifying with and giving expression to what might be termed 'spirit'. Like faith, art invites us in to an experience which may be shared with others, or intensely unique and personal. Throughout history people have used art to try and describe their beliefs, to capture the unknown, to give voice to the spirit. Who of us hasn't been moved by a picture, a poem, a story, a sunset or a place?

In his work as a hospital chaplain, Mark Read meets people who are exploring issues related to their spirit, who are trying to make sense of their experience and who are grappling with their hopes and fears. Mark will talk about some of his work with patients as an introduction to helping us discuss and explore the healing connections between space, art, spirit and healing.

Dr Anna Farthing, Arts Programme Director for the Trust will introduce and lead the evening which will include open discussion.

There will be talks from: ● Georgina Bolton, Creative Producer, Public Arts Officer for Bristol City Council and Associate Lecturer on UWE Curating Course. Georgina will help us think about the impact and use of space. ● Natalia Mesa, Medical Doctor, and specialist in Medical Humanities who worked for 20 years in Colombia and Spain. Natalia will use paintings and art to help us explore the influence of spirituality on healing.

The dangers we face from climate change are well documented and Climate Action Tracker tells us that Morocco is the only country in the world that is on course to achieve the 1.5 degrees Celsius target whilst the rest of the world will be hard put to it to get anywhere near the 2 degrees Celsius limit set by the Paris Agreement.

Fazlun Khalid argues that what has brought us to the edge of disaster is the human proclivity to tamper with the default settings that make nature work aided and abetted by a political economy that promises the good life. The Green Energy Movement, the Divestment Initiative and the push for Sustainable Development are all parts of a package of initiatives put together to stem the global warming tide, but in Fazlun's opinion, they go no further than tinker with the technicalities. The problem is systemic and political economy the issue. Lifestyle change is now urgently called for if we are to avoid planetary collapse.

Fazlun Khalid will offer his views on this important topic with reference to his recently published book, 'Signs on the Earth - Islam, Modernity and the Climate Crisis.'

There will be a Q&A session, and opportunity for further discussion during refreshments following the talk.

The theme will be decided nearer the time.

Scriptural Reasoning is a tool for inter faith dialogue where people of different faiths come together to read and discuss their holy texts. The aim is not to seek agreement but rather to explore the texts and their possible interpretations across faith boundaries, and learning to 'disagree better'. The result is often a deeper understanding of the texts and the development of strong bonds across faith communities. SR is now practised globally, including in places affected by religion-related tensions and conflict.

This Education and Religion SIG Seminar brings together two speakers who are immersed in using the arts to challenge assumptions in formal and informal educational contexts.

Alia Azougbi will present her work as Head of HEC Global Learning Centre in schools and museums. With a strong commitment to challenge the notion of faith communities as homogeneous, Nothing About Me Without Me , promotes the importance of working closely with individuals to maintain the integrity of authentic voices. Alia's role as an educator and storyteller in school and community settings draws on her insights into collaboration and pedagogy. Working with teachers to support students' experiences of learning about migration, the scope of Alia's work extends to her involvement with the curators of the new Albukhary Gallery of Islamic Arts at the British Museum, where public education and museum education for schools meet.

Laura Moffat is director of Art + Christianity, an organisation that seeks to foster and explore the dialogue between art and religious traditions. Through projects, events, publications and consultations the organisation has forged collaborations and partnerships with galleries, art institutions and places of worship as ways to address current issues such as migration and community relations. Laura will present Art + Christianity's projects with faith and non-faith communities and an alternative provision in a London school. She will also share the work of commissioned artists and art historians who have raised awareness of the diversity of historical and contemporary art in churches.

He was ordained as a monk and practiced a daily schedule of meditation and service to the community; living by the vows of a novice monastic and learning from the Buddhist nun, teacher and community founder Pema Chí¶drí¶n.

Having completed this residency and returned to his role as Assistant Interfaith Adviser at the University of Westminster, he has been asked many times how it feels to be back in the world . In this talk and discussion he will share his experience of retreat / return, and other seemingly opposing notions like discipline / freedom and mundane / sacred, exploring how these categories now feel less distinct than he had previously thought them to be.

He will also be sharing wildlife photos, answering questions (with an open invitation to the daring and critical) and dropping numerous quotes from Leonard Cohen, who spent 7 years living in a Buddhist monastery, along the way. For now, back in the world , he can agree with Leonard's reflection on monastic life, that 'it is a great luxury not to have to think about what you are doing next'.

The Universal Peace Federation, in partnership with the Women's Federation for World Peace, would like to extend a heartfelt invitation to a (North West) European Conference to be held in the Boothroyd Room of the House of Commons, London, on Thursday November 7th from 1 pm to 5 pm.

We will be considering the theme - 'Reconciliation and Peace Building in a time of increasing polarisation: The Need for Cooperation Between Political and Faith Leaders'

The conference will also launch the Inter-religious Association for Peace and Development (IAPD) in the United Kingdom. IAPD, as a sub group within the Universal Peace Federation, will focus on developing inter-religious dialogue and promoting fora that encourage political and religious leaders to cooperate in policy formation. Speakers include Rev Dr Marcus Braybrooke, Co- Founder of the Three Faiths Forum, Rev. Kim Plumpton, Cobham United Church, Sanjay Jagatia, former Secretary General of the Hindu Council UK and Archbishop Johannes Ndanga of the Apostolic Christian Council of Zimbabwe. Part of the session will feature two speakers from Ireland who lost a family member during 'the troubles' and their journey following that tragedy.

The conference will explore, from both political and religious perspectives, how reconciliation and constructive dialogue can bridge the growing divide between opposing sides in an age of populist politics and promote consensus building in the public space of our nations. The second session will include politicians and young leaders. Speakers include Professor Lord Bhikhu Parekh and representatives from UPF's Young Achievers.

What does faith mean to people who believe? How does this differ between people of different religious groups? Do people of faith feel that they can bring their whole selves to work? How important is it for us to understand the religious beliefs of the Faith communities that we serve on a daily basis, through our work as Public Servants?

Many feel that faith has become a taboo topic in the workplace and that there is no unity / cohesion between different faith communities.

At this event we will hear from Senior Civil Servants and people of faith as we explore these topics, questions and more. This will be a safe space where all are welcome, regardless of Faith and/ or Belief, to share their thoughts, learn more about different world religions and ask questions on this important topic.

With people of faith making up a significant percentage of the public work force and the public at large, come and learn what role we can all play in making the Civil Service a more inclusive employer.

I am very humbled and excited that we are hosting three deeply religious, but impressively open- minded faith leaders for a frank and open discussion about our texts and about the significant challenges facing our society in 2019.

Our great interfaith advocates have included former Chief Rabbis Lord Jacobovits and Lord Sacks and we are delighted that CNSS will become the stage for an important encounter - especially in the light of elections and faith challenges in broader society.

All three faith leaders are recognised widely for their knowledge, their willingness to grapple with faith and religion in a modern society and there will be ample time for an extensive Q&A session for all of us to ask some of those challenging questions.

Despite its important social implications, conciliation in the Qur'an remains a fragmented and under-researched field of study. This seminar will focus on Conciliation in the Meccan suras Q.6 and Q.7, and will argue that Conciliation is emphasised through the central notion of iṣlāḥ (reconciliation, reform, order). The analysis reveals that iṣlāḥ is the central around which equilibrium is maintained in the Divine world order, a process of Divine education in the form of revelation and prophetic instruction, which prevents and contains disputes and directly aims to address the angelic complaint, at man's creation, of fasād and bloodshed on the earth. As such, iṣlāḥ is integrally embedded in the Qur'anic discourse and appears to be the primary responsibility of man as God's vicegerent. The origination narrative of Adam and Satan, embedded within the discourse on iṣlāḥ, utilises the repeated term of address 'O Children of Adam' to provide a clear sense of universal and timeless appeal.

Gender inequality, racial injustice, unequal wealth distribution: these are just some of the global issues we are facing today. The UoS Baha'i Society would like to invite anyone who recognises the oneness of humanity and has a desire to address these issues to join us in watching this incredibly inspiring new film.

Two hundred years ago, the Báb appeared, inaugurating a new Dispensation and preparing humanity for the light of Bahá'u'lláh's Revelation.

Dawn of the Light portrays several individuals from different continents as they relate their own personal search after truth and meaning. They share their discovery that God has sent two Divine Messengers – the Báb and Bahá'u'lláh – Whose teachings are revolutionizing human thought and behaviour, changing darkness into light. The film shows glimpses of how this same discovery is inspiring the efforts of many across the globe to serve humanity and to contribute to building a new pattern of life.

ID: 2887 Date of activity: 12/11/2019 End date: 12/11/2019 Name of activity: Inter Faith Lecture 2019 Organisation(s) holding the event: The Parkes Institute Short description: James Parkes in the Hitler Years - International Interfaith Interracial Humanitarianism'

When World War One veteran James Parkes went up to Oxford in the fall of 1919 he was part of a generation in search of 'the moral foundations of a way of life' that would preclude a repetition of what had just happened to the war-torn world. The non-utopian path of impartial humanitarianism on which Reverend (and eventually) Dr James Parkes embarked after Oxford had both international and national implications, for, in his view, humanity reached fulfillment through the fullest possible development of all of its constituent nations. Humanity's progress would only be made through mutual understanding, respect, and cooperation between the peoples of nations, races, and religions.

As thirty-two year old Parkes took up the work of building international understanding for the International Student Service in Geneva in 1928, its greatest challenge was the mounting aggression of nationalists toward Jewish minorities in the new or newly configured post-WWI nations of eastern Europe. Even though the redrawing of national borders had been reinforced by mandatory Minorities Treaties that guaranteed the rights of those within the new or expanded states, there was avid discontent over who was and was not a state national. Within months of the signed treaties Numerus Clausus laws, which most radically applied to Jewish students, restricted university education to those who fit the newly structured nationalist criteria of belonging.

By the time Parkes assumed the role that would lead to his life work in the history of antisemitism and Christian-Jewish relations, the leader of the antisemitic party in Romania was an esteemed university professor; agitation, nationalist ardour, and anti-Jewish violence had spread from universities to the general populations; and the combined effects of Numerus Clausus in Hungary, Poland, and Romania, both by law and de facto, had driven as many as ten thousand eastern European Jewish students to expatriation in search of university enrollment.

Within this context, the 2019 Interfaith Lecture will look at the pioneering humanitarian thought and work of Parkes as he moved back and forth between the internationalist milieu of Geneva, the nationalist fray of antisemitic politics in eastern and central Europe, and the home front of Britain during the Hitler years.
