World Interfaith Harmony Day

In 2010 the United Nations established “World Interfaith Harmony Week as a way to promote harmony between all peoples regardless of their faith”. In that spirit we have organized a meetup where we can all talk about and share our faith traditions in the spirit of openness. You are welcome to bring bread and a topping from your culture to share.

  • Participants From Over 10 Faith Groups
  • Booths With Information on Each Faith
  • Small Circle Conversations

  1. “Like” the Global March for Humanity page on Facebook. Our goal is a million people
  2. Encouraging marches, flash mobs, candle lightings (limited only by your creativity) and acts of compassion during World Interfaith Harmony Week (February 1-7)
  3. Check the Global March website for more information and to report what’s happening
