Young interfaith leader from Rochdale hosts low budget lunch to tackle extreme poverty
Representatives from seven different faith traditions came together in London earlier this month to share a low budget lunch and discuss the importance of interfaith work to fight extreme poverty.
22-year-old Usman Nawaz, from Rochdale, a Faiths Act Fellow of the Tony Blair Faith Foundation and one of the event organisers took part in this unique lunch alongside representatives from the Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist and Bahá’í faiths. The lunch was in support of Live Below the Line, a charity challenge in May to fight extreme poverty and raise funds and awareness for charities including Malaria No More UK.

Interfaith group taking message of 'creation care' to the masses: Leaders believe the call to be stewards of Earth needs to be taken more seriously
It's commonly thought that religion and politics don't mix. Religion and science don't have a great history, either.
But some Christian, Jewish and Muslim groups in the Chesapeake Bay region insist that environmental stewardship is one arena in which science, religion - and even politics - are a natural fit. And they are working together to make their point.
In February, 36 Maryland clergy petitioned state lawmakers to support wind power legislation. Greater Washington Interfaith Power & Light coordinated their input, which resulted in a joint letter signed by Protestant, Catholic, Jewish and Muslim leaders, as well as ministers from the mixed-faith Unitarian Universalist church.
