May peace prevail on earth.
World Interfaith Harmony Week
February 1-7 of each year has been designated World Interfaith Harmony Week by the United Nations. It was launched in February 2011 to promote harmony among people of different faiths at a time when interreligious conflict is claiming lives and livelihoods all over the world.
United Religions Initiative (URI) invites you to join our more than 530 interfaith Cooperation Circles (CCs) in 79 countries in taking action this year to build peace. You can register your activities on the official World Interfaith Harmony Week site, or click here to send us your stories and photos/videos.
