Europe and the Middle East
EME is IARF’s regional network for Europe and the Middle East. It brings together IARF chapters, member organisations and individual members from across the region.
EME connects people and communities committed to liberal religion, freedom of religion or belief, human rights and open interfaith engagement, creating space for exchange, cooperation and joint activity.
