Interfaith & Peace Conferences

The Appeal of Conscience Foundation has hosted international conferences for peace, mutual respect and acceptance since 1992 beginning with the start of the conflict in former Yugoslavia.

“The people in this room, I believe, are best positioned to work with leaders and local communities around the country to make sure we’re doing just that.” – Participant at the Interfaith Forum

“Building coalitions, convening groups like the group that’s here today, all of those things are part of the strategy. But I really believe it starts with education.” – Participant at the Interfaith Forum
