Interfaith Outreach
Climate change is a challenge that will require all faith groups to work towards a common goal.
Let's start the journey together.
Let's work together
This year the theme of the Green Khutbah Campaign is changing hearts and minds through action. Each of us can do something, however large or small, every single day to make an impact.
However, the challenge of climate change is larger than any one faith, which is why we invite other communities to join the Green Khutbah Campaign. Working together towards a common goal not only breaks down barriers, but promotes better understanding of each other faith traditions while tackling climate change.
Please see below for resource material to help you deliver a Green Khutbah in your community.
