RFF Women’s Interfaith Workshop; For International Women’s Day 2024, “Inclusion and Integration: How do we get it right?”.  Now more than ever in the UK we find that we are living in what is fast becoming a global society.  The mixture of races, religions, and cultures is growing phenomenally through migration, immigration and mixed marriages.  And there is a blending, exchanging, sharing of the cultures that this mixture brings, be it through food, traditions, language, music, clothing, or religious celebrations.

But, like any change that occurs, adjusting to living in a society that has so many different cultures within it brings its own challenges.

  • So what are these challenges? 
  • How do we tackle them and come out triumphant?
  • What are the difficulties or barriers? How do we overcome them? 
  • What does integration mean and how does it look?
  • How can we ensure that we have inclusion in our communities and in society in general, so that everyone feels valued and no one feels left out or degraded?
  • And what is our role in this as women?
  • How important is it that we have a voice and space to action this?

Our workshops are friendly, safe places where women of all faiths (and none) can talk together, share views and help foster a better understanding of the many different faiths in our area.
