One hour workshops will include:

14:00 – 18:00 Policy Brief Conference – Learning from Experience, Leading to Engagement with Religion and Belief Diversity
Belieforama brings its experience to bear on the policy debate at European Parliament, providing insights from our survey with religious diversity training participants and consultation with leaders from a variety of religio-cultural organisations.
Hosted by MEP Emine Bozkurt and led by Professor Paul Weller, this conference will offer key considerations and recommendations for policy-makers.
The conference will be followed by a reception outside room A3G2 in the Parliament, including the photo exhibition “Who Am I?” of the Open Society Institute, and a photo booth to give the chance to conference participants and Parliamentarians to express themselves visually.
