The Doha International Centre for Interfaith Dialogue (DICID) is set to participate as a principal organizing partner in the 2026 International Conference on Peace Among Followers of Religions, taking place in Malacca, Malaysia. This marks the center's second consecutive year of involvement in the event, following its role in the 2025 conference hosted in Penang, Malaysia.
The conference aims to foster international cooperation and understanding by providing a platform for religious leaders, government officials, and academics to exchange knowledge on promoting peace and coexistence. The theme of the conference centers on Malacca and Malaysia as a symbol of unity in faith, culture, and diversity, promoting harmony among different religious communities.
Dr. Ibrahim bin Saleh Al Nuaimi, Chairman of the Board at DICID, emphasized the organization's commitment to expanding international partnerships and promoting dialogue among religions and cultures. He highlighted the center's growing international presence, extending to Europe, the Americas, and Asia, which solidifies Qatar's role as a proactive partner in global peace efforts.
With around 150 participants in attendance, the 2026 conference seeks to explore how shared values can bridge understanding among followers of various religions and cultures. The discussions aim to produce recommendations that will support the development of cohesive societies and reinforce the importance of mutual respect, acceptance, and cooperation among religious communities and civil society institutions.
