That the Parliament welcomes Scottish Interfaith Week, taking place from 13 to 20 November 2022, organised by Interfaith Scotland; understands that this year’s theme is storytelling; considers that this is Scotland’s foremost interfaith festival, and as such has the unique opportunity to explore how faith and belief impact communities and offer resilience, connection and joy; further considers that storytelling enables barriers to be broken down, stereotypes to be challenged and important conversations to be started, and notes the hope that members of faith and belief communities all over Scotland can participate in this year’s Scottish Interfaith Week and that everyone, including residents of Glasgow Shettleston, considers attending their nearest event.
