Welsh Christians and Muslims will hold a joint conference on Thursday exploring the concept of citizenship.
The conference is the fifth in a series of consultations on fundamentalism and religious extremism organised by the Church in Wales in partnership with the Muslim Council of Wales and the Welsh Centre for International Affairs.
Rev Robin Morrison, church and society adviser for the Church in Wales, said the consultations were helping build trust and mutual respect between people of different faiths in Wales.
“In an age of tensions and challenges, we are asking how each religion can understand itself and the other religion better,” said Rev Morrison.
“We want to know what in each faith can motivate us to find a common voice when faced with the seriousness of global and local needs.
“We are building up trust so that we are not afraid to ask each other the hard questions.”
The conference, being held in Cardiff Bay, will focus on forms of identity and belonging in a global world, and rights and responsibilities.
Speakers include Mrs Asma Khan, research associate at Cardiff University’s School of Social Sciences, and Joanne Glenn, head of the Community Cohesion Unit at the Welsh Assembly Government.
