Recently, ISKCON devotees participated in the UK Women’s Faith Forum’s inaugural event, “Keeping Hatred Off Our Streets.” The February 28th gathering in Parliament included women from across five major faith groups who are working collectively to ensure that the experiences, skills, and dedication of women in faith communities are focused on today’s key issues.
“Representing Islam, Sikhism, Hinduism, Christianity, and Judaism, the Women’s Faith Forum is motivated by the essence of our faith traditions,” said Nimai Dasi, a WFF member, “We are inspired and driven by the opportunity to come together to share and learn not only from our diversity but also to build on our connections and similarities as women.”
Another WFF member, Braja Vadhu Dasi (Bijal Majithia) is a leader focused on creating Inclusive and Diverse workplace cultures. She is the Head of Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion at the CIPD (the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development). She was joined by Nimai Dasi (Nima Suchak), a regular contributor to BBC Radio 2 Pause for Thought and BBC Radio Hindu Reflections. She works actively on interfaith dialogue and is a founding member of Leicester Stories of Hope, a Hindu-Muslim dialogue group that creates space to better understand faith traditions.
