Dispelling the Taboo of Interfaith Conversations: Youth Interfaith Leaders Share their Learning
Session Description:
Have you ever heard that talking about religion (spirituality or secular identity) is taboo or exclusionary? As knowledgeable and empowered youth interfaith leaders, the Kaufman Institute Youth Leadership Scholars share their experience with broaching the topic of interfaith inclusion as a tool for equity and advancing the conversation on intersectional identities. They share interactive activities that can be used to promote interfaith dialogue and youth leadership development. They also share the impact that youth interfaith leadership has had on our community along with the hurdles and challenges they have overcome.
