How can Humanist & Muslim Londoners live & work together?

November 25th, 2014 18:30   --   21:30

London is probably the most diverse and vibrant city in the world. One in eight of our fellow Londoners is a Muslim, but how much do we know about London’s Muslim communities? And how much do they know about Humanism? Is there common ground? What diversity exists amongst Muslims in London? What is changing? Can we see beyond our differences? How can we work together?

This evening of discussion is a unique opportunity to address these questions and others you may wish to ask.

Alom Shaha, author of The Young Atheist's Handbook, will be in conversation with:

  • Mamadou Bocoum - Public Relations Officer for the Sharia Council
  • Sara Khan - Co-Founder and Director of the human rights charity Inspire
  • Yasmin Rehman - Centre for Secular Space
  • Huda Jawad - Advisor at the Centre for Academic Shi'a Studies and research Coordinator for Solace Women's Aid

The event is free to attend and open to all but we will ask for donations on the door to cover our costs, we ask you to give what you personally can afford.

Organised by London Humanists in association with Conway Hall Ethical Society and the British Humanist Association as part of Interfaith Week.

ALL WELCOME. BOOK YOUR TICKET HERE.
