Dubai Forum 2024

The Dubai Forum convened 65 leaders from over a dozen countries to build public awareness about the benefits of collaboration among the Abrahamic faiths (November 15-16). Research shows that multi-faith collaboration can advance women’s empowerment in the workplace and civil society.

Seeking to elevate women’s voices, the media and panels expressed the importance of coexistence and mutual understanding in the workplace. This was the first-ever civil society led inter-faith event in Dubai to showcase Jewish, Muslim and Christian women influencers.

VISION

Our goal is to provide women leaders with a tool kit of educational resources to support inclusion in the workplace & civil society, highlighting women’s critical stories & solutions.

OBJECTIVES

  • Build trust and relationships
  • Explore challenges and opportunities
  • Share practical tools & resource
  • Identify inter-faith & gender equality champions
  • Foster religious harmony in the MENA region
“Bringing women together to lead an interfaith initiative in business is critically important. United voices transcend barriers and promote mutual understanding between different faiths, bringing a beacon of hope to an often divided world.”
