Midlands+ Interfaith Conference 2024

The Government’s new Minister for Faith, Lord Khan of Burnley, addressed an evening conference of inter-faith activists at Coventry University on Tuesday, 12th November. Lord Khan highlighted the Midlands’ role in encouraging and promoting inter-faith and reflected upon the discussions he has had with various faith leaders since taking his position in government earlier this year.

The ‘Midlands Interfaith Conference’ was designed to re-energise inter-faith activity in the East and West Midlands. As in other parts of the country, those working on dialogue and social action involving different faith groups have been demoralised by factors including the closure of the Inter Faith Network for the UK, following cancellation of its funding earlier this year.
