World Interfaith Harmony Week provides a platform – one week in a year – when interfaith and other groups of goodwill show the world what a powerful movement they are.

On February 2, 2024, during Interfaith Harmony Week, Global Family for Love and Peace hosted an intergenerational conversation to share experiences, knowledge and values founded on personal faith traditions that foster mutual respect, understanding, and collaboration. “Collaboration” is a call to action.
