World Economic Forum partners with Religious Freedom & Business Foundation
Religion's impact is increasing globally on economies, politics and societies. New strategic intelligence partnership focuses on role of religion.
"As religious diversity and religious populations grow, so does their impact, creating new challenges and opportunities for societies, governments and economies," says Dr. Brian Grim, president of the Religious Freedom & Business Foundation (RFBF). "For a number of years RFBF has been working with the World Economic Forum (WEF) to help business leaders and policy makers better understand the role of religion in today's world -- both the contributions of religious freedom (for all) as well as challenges posed by religion-related violence and intolerance," Grim said, "and we're glad to see this collaboration take this new step forward."
Jim Landale, Head of Content and Partnerships, Strategic Intelligence, World Economic Forum, states that “the role that religion and inter-faith dialogue can play in tackling global challenges, whether related to the environment, healthcare, peace and security, or supporting fair economic growth, is under-appreciated in some quarters. And, understanding the intricate independencies between religious freedom and healthy, prosperous societies is a key factor in realizing their full potential."
Landale goes on to state, "That is why the World Economic Forum’s Strategic Intelligence platform is so pleased to welcome the Religious Freedom & Business Foundation as one of its content partners. Users of the platform will now have access to RFBF's content across its 260+ topic maps, where relevant."
Recent research contributed to the Strategic Intelligence platform includes:
-- Value of Faith-based Recovery Support? $316 Billion
