G20 Interfaith Forum

At the G20 Interfaith Forum (IF20) in Cape Town, South Africa, Mrs. Bani Dugal, Principal Representative of the Bahá’í International Community to the United Nations, joined a panel on “Ubuntu in Action: Focus on Vulnerable Communities.”

In her reflections, she emphasized: “As long as one part of humanity is suffering, the whole cannot flourish. The next stage in our social evolution is inescapable: building a global society where material progress and spiritual principles advance hand in hand.”

She added: “Technical skills alone cannot heal a divided world; only when justice, generosity, and mutual assistance guide our efforts can true development take root.”

The Forum brought together leaders of faith and thought to explore how values of solidarity and justice can guide responses to today’s most pressing challenges.

Two IEF board members, Monica Maghami and Arthur Dahl, serve on the G20 Interfaith Forum working group on the environment, and contribute actively to the work of the Forum.
