On March 19th, the Swedish Dialogue Institute for the Middle East and North Africa organised a panel discussion on the role of faith in peacebuilding and development which was held in its residence. The discussion sought to explore how faith traditions, across different backgrounds, can contribute to bridge divides, and foster resilience in societies facing complex challenges. The panel was followed by an iftar gathering to bring together a wider group of partners, religious leaders, as well as peace and development practitioners for continued conversations on the topic.
