The Faith & Belief Forum has worked for over 20 years to build good relations between people of all faiths and beliefs and to create a society where difference is celebrated. The organisation creates spaces in schools, universities, workplaces and within the wider community where people can engage with questions of belief and identity and meet people different from themselves.

ParliaMentors is the Faith & Belief Forum鈥檚 internationally acclaimed youth leadership programme. It enables young people from diverse faith and belief communities such as Mamataj (pictured) and those from more marginalised communities to develop leadership skills while being mentored by MPs. Working collaboratively with other young people different to themselves enables the participants to deliver community projects which challenge the assumption that people from different faith communities cannot work together to achieve change.聽

The Faith & Belief Forum also runs a faith linking schools programme bringing together single faith schools of different religious faiths. Young people on the programme including students from the Moriah Jewish School and Guru Nanak Primary School (pictured) are supported to build friendships and to learn about the religious traditions of the other school. This helps them to develop and deepen empathy skills needed to engage in contemporary society.
