120 KAICIID Fellows from around the world discussed in Vienna, Austria the role of interreligious dialogue in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The sustainable development goals address challenges such as education, gender equality, sustainable communities, peace and justice. The conference was centred on five panels of experts, composed of 33 Fellows alumni and members of KAICIID’s interreligious Board.
