A Christian-Muslim inter-faith dialogue, a display and an open day at the Clyde St mosque are among events being held in Dunedin this week during Islam Awareness Week.
Most of the activities were centred around the University of Otago campus, where many Muslim students studied, Muslim University Student Association public relations officer Aufar Bahri said yesterday.
Four Christian and four Muslim speakers will speak at the inter-faith dialogue, being held today in the university union common room at 1pm.
Each would give their perspective on topics including the concept of God, the role of scripture, and the role of women, university chaplain and dialogue chairman The Rev Greg Hughson said.
Tomorrow's activities include a display in the union common room and the screening of a documentary about Muslim and Christian leaders working for peace in Nigeria.
An open day would be held at the Clyde St mosque on Saturday from 10am.
