Religious diversity workshops
Seek. Immerse. GROW.
Religious diversity workshops help people gain insight, bridge communication gaps, and empower people to become leaders in interfaith diversity and leaders for social change.
Appreciation of religious diversity is a key element in creating an inclusive and welcoming environment both at work and in your community. Religious Diversity Workshop participants develop religious literacy or awareness and/or develop and practice empathy. Workshops can be tailored to the needs of your organization, with a blend of informational and interactive sessions to meet your goals.
