World Religions Conference

World Religions Conference

The World Religions Conference is an multi-faith conference typically held annually throughout many countries of the world.

The conference was originally envisioned by the founder of the worldwide Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama`at, Hazrat Mirza Ghulam Ahmad, over a hundred years ago. The intention for this conference was to provide a forum for scholars of various faith groups to express the beauties of their respective faiths in a peaceful and friendly atmosphere.

In Canada, the World Religions Conference has been organized by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Jama`at Canada with the cooperation of several cities, academic institutions, faith based associations, Student clubs and numerous other organizations for the last 28 years. It has typically been held in Waterloo, Ontario.
