Communities of Hope – Barking & Dagenham

Over the last 4 months, we have been working with local communities, young people and schools to deliver an interfaith dialogue project in Barking and Dagenham.

This event brings together over 70 participants from across the project and other community members who are passionate about building bridges across communities and want to share their visions of hope for closer, better connected communities.  

At the event, you will have an opportunity to:

• Listen to and learn from participants . Discover what motivated them to take part in an interfaith community dialogue project and how they intend to continue this work.

• Take part in group discussions led by our young leaders . A central aim of this project has been supporting young people to develop and vocalise their hopes of closer communities and we want to give them a platform to speak to and be heard by their communities

• Meet other local people and share your vision of hope. When people cannot meet in person, being able to see others and learn about good work that is happening is vital

• Enjoy the performances from local artists
