It will be interesting to see what the Northern Ireland Assembly will come up with WHEN they finally come out with their new 'Cohesion, Sharing and Integration' strategy. Will it contain anything regarding interfaith work? A separate interfaith strategy will no doubt have to be something for the further future in this land. We shall see - this is a particular challenge here. Barney, your sharing of this document as well as your comments are extremely helpful and useful.

I think the government has taken a good step here and the good outweighs the risks. Ciara Wells, Anna Cummins and the faiths team at CLG deserve praise for their work. I shall be interested to know what you think once you've read the document, Tess. Hi, Tess, thanks for your comment.

To some extent I share the concerns, but the more that can be done to bring the work of different faiths closer, the better. I guess there's always a sense of Government 'interference' but on the other hand, I for one tend to complain when nothing is done, so I guess they can't win. I'll be interested to download and read the strategy document. It will probably help with the diversity programme I'm helping to run at work, as well. This is a really good initiative.
