POLICE RELIGIOUS LITERACY PROGRAM​

​

Join us on this 3-day religious literacy program to enhance your understanding of the diverse communities you serve.​

​

November 27 - 29, 2024 in Toronto, ON

Encounter World Religions promotes religious pluralism, where people of diverse religious, spiritual and secular identities live and thrive in harmony with one another. 

We strive to create a better world by fostering religious literacy to help people understand the world’s religious traditions and how they impact our relationships and our societies.

 

Religious literacy helps us all be sensitive to the needs, perspectives and practices of others and provides a foundation for authentic, compassionate connection. Through engaging training programs, rich, experiential learning, and insightful conversations, Encounter helps workplaces, schools, community groups and individuals develop the religious literacy we all need to better understand our colleagues, neighbours, and even the evening news.
