Muslim Philanthropy in a Canadian Context

Emmanuel College’s Centre for Religion and Its Contexts, in partnership with the Journal of Muslim Philanthropy and Civil Society, is hosting the Muslim Philanthropy in a Canadian Context Symposium on Saturday, March 27, 10:30 a.m.–4 p.m. EDT.

This symposium addresses a simple, yet underexplored, question: How is Muslim philanthropy developing in a secular liberal democracy such as Canada? The symposium will be a pioneering event bringing together scholars from a variety of disciplines and practitioners working in the non-profit/charitable sector.

Funded in part by a grant from the Journal of Muslim Philanthropy and Civil Society, which is a bi-annual, peer reviewed, open access journal published by the Center on Muslim Philanthropy in partnership with Indiana University Press, Lake Institute on Faith & Giving, World Congress of Muslim Philanthropists, International Institute of Islamic Thought, and the Lilly Family School of Philanthropyat Indiana University.

All are welcome! The event is free and online. To attend, please click here to register. The symposium’s overview, schedule, abstracts and bios are available here.
