Our Interfaith Work
The department’s activities include meetings between religious leaders, joint workshops, joint community projects, and seminars on religion and society. We work with Jewish, Muslim, Christian, Druze, and other communities, and promote a dialogue based on mutual respect and recognition of human value.
The Interfaith Department serves as a bridge between different religious communities, enabling the creation of personal and professional connections that cross religious, cultural, and national boundaries.
Our flagship project is “Faithful Futures,” which we implement in partnership with “Sabil” and funded by the European Union.
The Interfaith Forum for Human Rights voices the voice that combines faith and social change, through activities and meetings of religious men and women and organizations from across the country, who meet online and face-to-face in order to bring to different audiences the worldview that supports connections.
The Interfaith March for Human Rights and Peace, which takes place annually in Jerusalem, is planned and implemented by the Interfaith Forum for Human Rights.
We hold a variety of events that combine activism and prayer, such as an interfaith harvest, plantings in the West Bank and the Negev, an Iftar meal with the Council of Unrecognized Villages in the Negev, and an interfaith prayer at the “The Time Has Come” conference.
We build and develop relationships and collaborations with bodies, organizations, and leaders of different religions and beliefs, seeing them as partners in promoting human rights and peace in our region, and work to be a significant factor in interfaith activism in Israel.
