List of Interreligious Organizations
An interreligious organisation or interfaith organization is an organisation that encourages dialogue and cooperation between the world's different religions. In 1893, the Parliament of the Worlds Religions held, in conjunction with the World Columbian Exposition, a conference in Chicago that is believed to be the first interfaith gathering of significance. In the century since, many organizations have been founded.
