National Commission for Inter-religious Dialogue & Ecumenism CC

Our purpose is to instill a spirit of nationalism and pride in national identity. To create an atmosphere of dialogue and understanding among different religious groups and to move towards social and religious harmony in Pakistan.

The NCIDE is focusing on three major groups: children, youth and women.

• CHILDREN: The commission is conducting two programs for school children. One is a value education program in which school teachers and students are taught the common values of religions living in Pakistan. The other program is an emergency response program in which the students and teachers are trained for disaster/emergency situations.
• YOUTH: The commission is working with college and university students for the promotion of peace and harmony.
• WOMEN: The commission developed SEED (Social Education and Enterprise Development) program for women, in which, we give women small grants for business.

Our CC also holds joint celebrations where people from different walks of life and different religions come together for celebrate different religious festivals, such as, Iftar, Eid, Christmas, Diwali, Raksha Bandhan and others. To learn more visit www.ncide.com
