Women & Religion: Five Different Views

Throughout history, religions (and how people interpret them) have sometimes promoted and sometimes limited the rights and power of women.  Hear from five panelists from varying backgrounds to learn more about the ways religious beliefs and tenants impact historical and modern-day experiences of women. They will also touch on how religion can support women as they seek equality and freedom in this complicated world.  The panelists who will be sharing their knowledge and perspectives are:

Ameena Jandali (Muslim)
Sheila Mohan (Hindu)
Tenzin Chogkyi (Buddhist)
Katy Dickinson (Christian)
Rabbi Amy Eilberg (Jewish)
This program is brought to you in partnership with the Islamic Networks Group – a peace-building organization that counters all forms of bigotry through face-to-face education and engagement.
