Interreligious Leaders Forum

It’s not about religion; it’s about relationships.” – Sean Rose

In 2009, a delegation from Silicon Valley traveled to Melbourne, Australia to accept the designation of “Partner City” bestowed by the Parliament of the World’s Religions, the world’s largest interreligious gathering. One of the outcomes of that recognition was the creation of SiVIC in 2011.
