Challenging Islamophobia

Our aim is to promote, celebrate and support intercultural awareness and communication. We do this through events, workshops and training.

Interculture

An informative, creative mix of talks by activists, academics and wonderful Bristolians. There will be workshops, spoken word performance, short films, music, photography, artwork and delicious food. 
This fantastic event would be particularly useful if you are a decision maker, community leader, an organisation that works with refugees or asylum seekers, youth worker, foster carer, or work in equalities or education, 
This is Interculture’s launch event. A new exciting social enterprise that supports and celebrates intercultural communication through workshops, training and events. We have chosen Challenging Islamophobia for our first event in response to the continued negative media representation of Muslims, the inhumane treatment of refugees and the PREVENT programme. Speakers include:
<UL>
<LI>Tariq Modood; founding director of Ethnicity and Citizenship research at Bristol University</LI>
<LI>Hassan Mahamdallie, a writer, playwright and Director of the Muslim Institute</LI>

We also have some spoken word performances from Deasy Bamford, Nell Lewis and Cat Cross alongside live music by Bristol based oud duo Nabra and Ravdeep Singh. Lunch provided by Bristol Hospitality Network, included in the ticket price along with refreshments. Food also available to take away.
Community Colab will run the afternoon workshops to explore creative ways of challenging Islamophobia whilst connecting participants and organisations. The aim is to create space for potential collaboration on projects or give people the chance to talk to the speakers or each other about this incredibly important subject. PLEASE BE THERE FOR 10.15 FOR REGISTRATION.
