Dr Iona Hine, Programme Manager for the Cambridge Interfaith Programme, interviews Professor Esra Ozyurek, Academic Director of the Cambridge Interfaith Programme and Sultan Qaboos Professor of Abrahamic Faiths and Shared Values. Discussion begins by considering how Esra's research on interreligious relations in Turkey and Germany may be applied to the UK. They discuss the impact of historical empires, British and Ottoman, and how imperial management of diverse groups and historical actions affect modern interfaith relations, policy, and governance. Past injustices and material realities impact on present conflicts. The conversation also highlights the value of cross-disciplinary partnerships and the erosion of shared values in today's socio-political landscape.Part of the UK Interfaith Futures series, November 2024.00:00 Introduction to the Cambridge Interfaith Programme01:15 Esra Ozyurek's Research and Its Relevance to the UK02:09 Historical Context of Interfaith Relations04:31 Modern Implications of Historical Conflicts08:01 Religion and Global Challenges Initiative11:18 Collaborations and Unexpected Partnerships15:05 Abrahamic Faiths and Shared Values17:47 Conclusion and Future Prospects
