World Theology Forum
Schedule of Events
This is an interfaith forum convened to address the widening gap between faiths and the consequences we observe manifesting in our world, due in part to a lack of open communication which has peace and love as its guiding principles.
AUG.07: Delegate Session
The rapid advance of secularism and consumerism needs to be addressed as a united community of faith, pointing the way to peaceful coexistence globally.
Jamaica is uniquely poised to host this forum, as a multiplicity of faiths peacefully coexist here and can be showcased as a model for the world.
8:00 am - 5:00 pm : Deletage Session
At the end of the delegate's session on August 7th, it is expected that there will be, " The Kingston Declaration", which proclaims to those in governance throughout the world what it is that we the global faith community expect and, therefore, what is their mandate. United we can make a difference.
