International Abrahamic Forum (IAF)

The International Abrahamic Forum benefits deeply from the many decades of fruitful experience in dialogue between Christians and Jews by its parent organization, the ICCJ. The IAF was established to expand inter-religious conversation to include Muslims as full partners in order to offer opportunities to advance the discussion and explore new ways of interacting with each other in the spirit of dialogue. The IAF offers a global platform for those ICCJ member organizations and individuals who are already engaged in this trilateral dialogue, and opens new partnerships with other organizations to create an international network for connecting people, local communities and organizations where experiences may be shared and new projects may flourish.
