Abstract

Dialogue Society organises annual dialogue dinners and meetings with people from a wide variety of ethnic traditions. Ramadan is a month when the relationships within and outside the community are strengthened by fasting and breaking the fast.

To reinforce the friendship, and dialogue between diverse communities, we gather in the intercultural dinners during Ramadan with people from all walks of life of varied communities and faith groups to emphasise on the values such as mutual understanding, deep respect, love, and peace.

The evening will begin with a short welcome speech followed by a presentation of Dialogue Society. When it is time to break the fast, guests will listen to the Ezan (call to prayer) and will be served a traditional Turkish Iftar dinner.

The event will end with the comments from the guests and the closing speech.
