Shared World Environmental Initiative – 2
Friday 23rd November at 7pm – The Centre Farnham Road
For more information, contact Malcolm 07909 100675
As a new venture for 2012, Slough Faith Partnership is supporting a project to encourage local
action on the environment across faith communities. Called Shared World, it aims to bring people
together in a shared space as a focus in making decisions towards a practical and local expression of our responsibility towards our shared environment. The project is a partnership between Slough Faith Partnership and the Burnham and Slough Deanery Climate Concern group.
This is the second meeting, following on from the event on 10th, and addressing feedback from that meeting At this event, the spotlight will turn to the state of the environment both globally and locally, not only because of its crucial importance in contemporary thinking, but because most faiths have an awareness of our relationship to creation as a significant part of their self-understanding.
