The United States has been described as a nation of immigrants, but refugee and diaspora communities have come under close scrutiny in recent months. The World Faiths Development Dialogue, with support from the GHR Foundation, has undertaken a pilot project in partnership with Harvard University’s Pluralism Project in early 2015. Its goal was to explore the religious lives of refugees who settle in the United States to better understand how religious communities, traditions, networks, or personal faith affect their adaptation and community-building in America's plural context.
This event was co-sponsored by the World Faiths Development Dialogue, the Pluralism Project at Harvard University, and Georgetown University’s Institute for Study of International Migration.
