Interfaith facilitation
Community building
Project collaborators: Catherine Mazzochi, Damian Ashton, Elana Wolpert & Lorena Estrella.
NYU’s Global Culture Centre wanted to build a community for people of diverse faiths. Through our initial conversations with them, we arrived at the idea of hosting a space for people to explore the theme of cultivating relationships.
We held a space for 25 participants of various faiths, religious beliefs and those without any religious affiliation to come together and have meaningful conversations, reflecting on the intersection of their faiths or the lack of it, and their relationships with their self, community and spirit.
I don’t often think about these questions and I’m glad I had a space to explore them. I will continue thinking about them.
I went to Fiji, Korea, Mexico, Turkey in a few hours! I got to travel the world and learn from all of you.
The conversations that we had today gives me hope for the world.
