History
It is a continuation of the interfaith dialogue initiated between Denmark and the Arab World in 2012. This first happened at the Beirut Conference in May 2012, where 50 Christian and Muslim representatives from Denmark, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Jordan met at the Danish-Arab Dialogue Conference in Beirut, Lebanon. Here, they discussed what can be said together with a common voice on issues of faith, ethics, religious freedom, coexistence, and dialogue across cultures.

- The Online Forum for Interfaith Dialogue
Religious leaders, scholars, and activists working in the field are invited to present themselves and their work, inform about new developments in their organisations, and share experiences and ideas related to interfaith practices. It aims to uphold communication between Muslims and Christians in Denmark and the Arab world and move beyond statements to concrete partnerships by sharing stories and articles with examples of best practices in the different national contexts, and from there formulate topics to be addressed in subsequent initiatives.
