Activities of Roshni 

Promoting racial harmony and human rights through communication, discussion and dialogue.

Workshops

Roshni will organise workshops to develop better communication and understanding through dialogue and discussion. A special effort will be made to include people of all ages but particularly young people in the workshops. Using dialogue as a tool for action, these workshops will aim at:

Educating the participants about diverse faiths and cultures Learning to accept differences through organised debates Building bridges between people of different faiths and also between people of faiths and those with none Developing skills of tolerance and mutual respect for all Examining and enriching ones own religious and spiritual understanding by contrasting and comparing the similarities between all religions and other disciplines
