Eid al-Fitr, the 'festival of breaking the fast', marks the end of Ramadan and is one of the most important days in the Muslim calendar. It is celebrated on the first day of Shawwal, the 10th month of the Islamic lunar calendar.

Eid al-Fitr is a day of great joy and thanksgiving. Muslims celebrate by gathering with friends and family, preparing sweet delicacies, exchanging gifts and putting up lights and other decorations in their homes.

Eid Mubarak to our Muslim friends around the world!

Children thrive and grow in trusting relationships with people who love and care for them. Ideally, and for the most part, this happens within their homes. Sadly, it also cannot be denied that the home is the place where most abuses occur. Families, schools, and religious communities need to become safe environments for children’s sound and healthy development.

Join us for a day of learning, sharing and reflecting together on this important issue for our societies through interactive panels, roundtable discussions, and dialogues with experts in the field.
