Join Us for Our 65th Anniversary Celebration!
For the Temple of Understanding’s 65th Anniversary, we are bringing together 14 leaders of the major interfaith organizations for a historic gathering to present their work and collaboratively envision the future for the Interfaith Movement. The morning symposium will feature TED-style talks sharing their work and hopes for the future. This is a one-time opportunity to hear personally from the major leaders of the Interfaith Movement. Ample time will be available for networking with our speakers.
The afternoon session will feature youth activists who are leaders in their field. This will be an interactive session with Q&A at the end, followed by a wrap-up session to outline future actions. We need your input and involvement at this time when courage, tolerance, and dialogue are of the utmost importance!
