University students from around the world are invited to apply to participate in a virtual program advancing intercultural and interfaith harmony, organized by Georgetown University, the Higher Committee of Human Fraternity, and the Muslim Council of Elders.

Focusing on the Document on Human Fraternity – signed by His Holiness Pope Francis and His Eminence the Grand Imam of Al-Azhar Professor Ahmed Al-Tayeb in Abu Dhabi in 2019 – the Human Fraternity Dialogues are an opportunity for students at universities around the world to participate in dynamic virtual conversations with their global peers about challenges to human fraternity and peaceful coexistence.
The Global Human Fraternity Dialogues – hosted by Georgetown University in collaboration with the Higher Committee of Human Fraternity and Muslim Council of Elders – will convene students around the world for 90-minute conversations (in English) to share their impressions of the Document on Human Fraternity, discuss its relevance to their local contexts and campus communities, and generate creative ideas for advancing intercultural and interreligious solidarity in practice.
There will be four online dialogues, one each month from February 2023 through May 2023. Students who participate in at least one dialogue will be eligible to apply for the Human Fraternity Fellows Program, which will bring a select group of 15 to 20 young people together for a study tour in the United Arab Emirates in early 2024.
Students can apply to participate in the ‘Human Fraternity Dialogues’ before the February 4, 2023 deadline via: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdKzBDRl3ffxl-XpQVCvKLVYqdqUozF_dPILXGPmw4fglXqZg/viewform
