Ramadan is Community: Challenging the cost-of-living through inclusion.” About this eventDialogue Society cordially invite you to the annual Iftar Dinner event with the theme of “Ramadan is Community “ in support with Brighton &amp; Hove City Council, Sussex Police IFCG, BHFA ,BHMF and TTH UK . We are excited to come together in person to promote a united community spirit, social cohesion, mutual understanding and solidarity. We want to eat together, dialogue together and enjoy a Ramadan evening.Ramadan is a holy month of fasting observed by many Muslims in the United Kingdom. As one of the five pillars of Islam, fasting during Ramadan is a form of worship of utmost importance. Among the many positive attributes Muslims aspire to develop during this period, empathy with those less fortunate and a reinforcement of positive, proactive community engagement stand out the most, especially as the Office of National Statistics show that the cost-of-living crisis has impacted 92% of adults in the United Kingdom. For us at the Dialogue Society, we uphold the belief that the inclusion of our diverse communities of all faiths (or none), cultures, ethnicities, abilities, and sexual and/or gender identities are crucial to the well-being of our society overall. Inclusion and the cost-of-living crisis are mutually exclusive; in short, more inclusion aids in tackling the cost-of-living crisis, whereas an increase in the cost of living contributes to the increase in hate crime and reduces inclusion. So, this year, under “Ramadan is Community: Challenging the cost-of-living through inclusion”, we hope to foster a community dialogue on this theme throughout the UK. Through utilising the several faith festivities that will coincide with one other (Ramadan, Easter, Navaratri, Mahavir Jayanti, Passover and Vaisakhi), we hope to bring our diverse communities together to both celebrate and spark dialogue on how to further inclusion to tackle the cost-of-living crisis.
