A workshop facilitated by LINE at the Shared Planet '09 Weekend Conference organised by P&P (People & Planet).
This workshop will encourage reflection and dialogue on values and experiences of Muslim and non-Muslim activists. We will explore some of the following questions: What kind of issues might concern Muslims most? Where might ecological activism and corporate globalisation fit in? How can bridges be built between Muslims and more mainstream activists? What values do we share? How can we work together? We will acknowledge and honour diversity within social groups.
This is one of a number of workshops taking place at the conference. Online booking available.
