Interfaith Scotland is the national interfaith organisation for Scotland.
We work to help ensure good relations between the diverse religion and belief communities of Scotland and also to share good practice in interfaith dialogue, education, engagement and training nationally and internationally.
First Minister John Swinney on Scottish Interfaith Week 2024
First Minister John Swinney shared his thoughts on the importance of Scottish Interfaith Week and celebrating Scotland’s diversity.
“I would like to thank Interfaith Scotland, as well as Scotland’s faith communities themselves, for your work in promoting community compassion and unity.
“Twenty years of Interfaith Week is a cause for celebration so please enjoy the festivities, the new friendships formed and the excellent conversations.”

Interfaith Creative Projects
Faces of Faith Exhibition
Interested in hosting the Faces of Faith exhibition at your venue? Contact frances@interfaithscotland.org
This exhibition is a showcase of Scotland’s diverse religious and cultural communities.
Through the stories of sixteen people, we explore the joys, challenges, and complexities of living as a person of faith in Scotland, and the impact these communities have on a local, national, and international level.
View the exhibition on the Scottish Interfaith Week website.
Poetry Book
We worked with the Scottish Poetry Library to create a beautiful anthology of 40 poems written by poets of all faiths and beliefs.
The poets shared insights into what gave them support and inspiration during the pandemic such as nature, faith and culture. You can read more here.
The poetry book is available to purchase from Interfaith Scotland for £4.99. Please email admin@interfaithscotland.org to request a copy.
Interfaith Scotland Magazines
We gather the most exciting interfaith news from across Scotland and publish the stories in a bi-annual magazine.
You can read the magazines online in the Newsletter section of our website.
