Forgiveness Forum: Where Science and Spirituality Meet

Religions for Peace is where the world’s religions join together to ensure that all people enjoy peace, harmony, and prosperity. Across our 90 national and six regional Interreligious Councils, we represent a network of global changemakers whose faith serves as a guide to advocating for and implementing meaningful solutions that leave no one behind.  

On 26 October, some of those key changemakers will come together for a thought-provoking conversation about the power of forgiveness through not only a spiritual lens, but a scientific lens, as well. 

We hope you can join us for this free, virtual event which will include many of our top religious leaders, our Secretary General, Prof. Azza Karam, as well as journalist Krista Tippett, host of the popular podcast, On Being.
