CSCA Events and Activities |
---|
We are developing the center to become a space for cultivating positive social networks — where the community can foster a sense of belonging and youth can channel their energy into peaceful, productive outlets. CSCA will organize educational programming for the community and host workshops, seminars and lectures on a range of issues including meditation, peace-building, cultural pluralism, religious tolerance, civic engagement, artistic expression, and women’s issues. We hope these activities we build capacity of the community to take practical steps to reject division amongst one another and feel part of a wider united British Society.
Below are a description of activities and programmes that will be carried out at the CSCA centre once construction is completed. |
