Three Faiths Forum commended at Awards for Bridging Cultures
The importance of the work of the Three Faiths Forum was recognised on Tuesday 1 December when it was given an official commendation at the Awards for Bridging Cultures (ABCs). An initiative of the Institute for Community Cohesion, the ABCs were created to support the work of organisations in the UK that promote intercultural dialogue, and every year attracts numerous applicants from all over Britain. This year, the Forum’s educational work, and especially the ‘Tools 4 Trialogue’ programme, was commended.
A statement from the ABCs said that the judges "felt that this project successfully addressed the interlocking issues of inter-faith and inter-cultural conflict. They were impressed with the project’s reach to 5,000 people and welcomed the methodology that gives young people the tools to ask difficult and sensitive questions in a way that supports tolerance and respect."
The Three Faiths Forum would like to thank the judging panel of the ABCs for recognising our educational work in this way. Since ‘Tools 4 Trialogue’ was the first programme developed at 3FF four years ago, we feel honoured and grateful for this acknowledgement of the quality and positive impact of our models for intercultural dialogue.
