Religions for Peace Australia invites you to:

End the Silence: Interfaith Prayers for Violence Prevention within the home and the community

Date: Sunday 24 November 2024      Time: 7pm
Location: Online (Zoom details below)

Join us for a powerful evening of unity, reflection, and hope. Violence affects all communities, yet patterns show a concerning reality: in Australia, 95% of those affected by violence experience harm at the hands of men.
United Religions Initiative and Religions for Peace Australia invite you to be part of a gathering with prayers, a presentation, and an open discussion on how our faith, spiritual, and ethnic communities can stand against violence and support women, children, and families at risk.

The evening will feature prayers and reflections from Baha’i, Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, and Sikh faith leaders from New Zealand and Australia, inspiring talks on community action to protect and uplift, and open dialogue for ideas and shared commitments to safety.

All welcome to consider how people of faith and faith communities can end domestic violence.
