KAICIID’s dialogue platforms, based on interreligious partnerships, address the main drivers of conflict through policy and advocacy, as well as local dialogue initiatives at the grassroots level. Our regional platforms convene diverse high-ranking religious leaders, harnessing their authority, influence, and vast numbers of followers. They also bring together members of grassroots organizations, with a focus on women and young people, to multiply our reach and turn dialogue into action.

Our global conferences and fora convene, among other relevant stakeholders from a variety of fields, religious leaders, policymakers and representatives of civil society organizations to address global challenges and threats to peaceful, cohesive communities. From our annual European Policy Dialogue Forum to the G20 Interfaith Forum, we have gathered thousands of participants to discuss issues such as combatting hate speech, using dialogue to support global development, and tackling violent extremism and the manipulation of religion to justify violence.

Led by the Secretary General, the KAICIID Secretariat carries out the administrative work of the Centre. The Secretary General oversees the day-to-day management of the Centre and provides regular reports of its activities to the Council of Parties and the Board of Directors. The Centre’s staff are responsible for implementing the programme of work laid out in the KAICIID Strategic Plan and ensuring its success in every corner of the world.

KAICIID’s E-Learning and Online Resources include digital knowledge tools, e-learning courses and thematic webinars, which teach dialogue as a tool to solve global issues. All e-learning courses are linked with global initiatives and development goals for sustainable peace. Additionally, the Connect2Dialogue online networking platform fosters best practices and knowledge exchange by connecting interreligious dialogue practitioners and experts from across the globe.
