How can we address religious inequalities in a post-Covid-19 transition?

26th June 2020 @ 4:00 pm - 5:30 pm

Despite much of humanity being faced with one of its worst pandemics for over a century, Covid-19 has not been a great equaliser. Pre-existing vulnerabilities have been exposed and social, economic, gender and religious inequalities have been exacerbated. If we do not address these inequalities now, the situation could be dramatically worse for religious minorities around the world in the wake of Covid-19 and its manifold consequences.

So, what can be done? Join us online to hear from our international panel of experts and those experiencing the impacts of Covid-19 in Iraq, Nigeria and Pakistan.
