Islamophobia Awareness Month 2024: “Seeds of Change”

Join us at Brent Civic Centre as we observe Islamophobia Awareness Month 2024, themed “Seeds of Change”. This in-person event will take place on Tuesday, 26 November 2024, at 18:00.

Experience a range of powerful stories shared by speakers who will bring to light the realities of Islamophobia. Through personal narratives and broader insights, our speakers will underscore the importance of planting “seeds” of understanding, respect, and unity. These stories aim to spark meaningful actions that challenge biases, foster empathy, and inspire lasting change.

This evening is an opportunity to celebrate diversity, confront stereotypes, and raise awareness across Brent. Don’t miss this chance to engage in meaningful dialogue and storytelling. Together, let’s cultivate greater inclusivity.
