About Sojourners

Centre for Interfaith Understanding (Singapore) and Vox Camerata jointly present “Sojourners: Sacred Heritage in Singapore from the Mediterranean to the Bay of Bengal”, a three-day festival consisting of a forum, public workshop, lecture recital, and concert.  

The festival activities provide a collective platform for mediated conversations and discussions about the diversity of faith practices in Singapore and how Singaporeans navigate this diversity.   This initiative aims to: (1) provide a safe and conducive environment for Singaporeans to come together to develop intercultural and interfaith strategies for community building, (2) promote a deeper appreciation and understanding of the cultural and faith practices, especially those of Singapore’s smaller ethno-religious minorities, and (3) use these dialogues and experiences as a means of strengthening our shared sense of identity so as to inculcate resilience and inclusivity amidst the backdrop of rising racial and religious tensions around the world.
