Join us for the launch of a new report on how Birmingham’s Muslim community is making change happen from the ground up & the barriers faced.

Book your place for the launch of this new research report, commissioned by the Muslim Institute and authored by Humera Khan of the An-Nisa Society. 'Birmingham’s Muslims - Conversations on grassroots community and change: An analytical overview' captures the experiences, perspectives and emerging issues affecting Birmingham’s diverse Muslim communities, with particular attention to voices that are often underrepresented in policy discussions and internal Muslim debates. These include women, young people, converts, African and Arab Muslim communities, and smaller grassroots organisations operating with limited resources.

“The combination of independent thought and practical engagement has always been central to the mission of the Muslim Institute. We approached Humera Khan of the highly regarded An-Nisa Society to write this report, because we see her and An-Nisa’s work as very much sitting in the same tradition, reflecting a commitment to dignity, justice, and accountability for all.

“You are invited to the launch of this unique and important report, where you will hear from the author, participants in the report and those working at the sharp end of community and voluntary work with the city’s Muslim communities.

"Come and listen and take part in this important discussion”. Hassan Mahamdallie, Director, Muslim Institute.
