Abstract:
Interreligious dialogue is a process of communication and an attempt at establishing mutual
respect and understanding between people from different and even no religious affiliation. The
desired outcome of interreligious dialogue is to promote peace, create understanding, work
towards cooperation in multi-religious societies, and if at all possible, social cohesion. This
endeavour requires persistence, patience and a commitment to finding common ground while
respecting the diversity of religious beliefs and practices.
