We’re especially looking forward to the upcoming Dialogue of Declarations II, taking place September 10–13 in Tashkent and Samarkand, Uzbekistan. Organized in partnership with the Government of Uzbekistan and the Muslim World League, this international gathering will bring together government officials, civil society leaders, scholars, and religious representatives from around the world. Dr. Mohammad bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa, Secretary General of the Muslim World League, has accepted Uzbekistan’s invitation to speak at the opening session.

The event will be co-convened by Love Your Neighbor Community (LYNC), led by CEO and Founder Wade Kusack, alongside the President of Uzbekistan’s Institute for Strategic & Regional Studies. Building on the success of the first Dialogue, this second convening will focus on protecting freedom of conscience and belief, advancing mutual respect between faith traditions, and countering violent extremism. It will also reflect on Uzbekistan’s rich Islamic heritage and the shared values that strengthen nations through peaceful cooperation and dialogue.
