Purpose: Hosted by CFR’s Religion and Foreign Policy program, this workshop offers a rare opportunity for religious leaders to engage directly with CFR experts and peers on the global issues most relevant to their communities and work. Through expert briefings, small group discussions, and access to CFR and Foreign Affairs resources, participants will gain practical insight and concrete strategies for navigating today’s geopolitical landscape— along with a national network of peers. Participation will include one hundred faith leaders from across the country.
