Educating children to actualize the “good child” model has been considered a moral obligation by various societies and communities throughout history. However, the exact parameters and criteria of this aspired model sometimes vary due to socio-religious and cultural factors. 

Co-sponsored by the College of Islamic Studies (CIS) at Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU), and the Doha International Center for Interfaith Dialogue (DICID), this specialized roundtable discussion explores the theme of religious tolerance. The focus will be on the Middle East but will highlight Qatar’s unique role in promoting religious tolerance and peaceful coexistence.
