Bridging Conversations

Interaction and Attitude Adjustments can Promote Religious Tolerance | DoLaFiya series

Travelling facilitates a cultural exchange that can help expand our perspective about life and also promote better understanding, tolerance, and appreciation of divergent beliefs. Is cultural exchange the solution to religious intolerance and conflict? How do we actively create these exchanges? This second episode features the brilliant and prolific Abiola 'Ablo' Adebiyi the founder of Elevate Development Foundation, a forensic accountant,  host of 'Ablo Convos' podcast, and a devout Christian. We touch on the interaction between Christians and Muslims and other religions, we also touch on the other factors that exacerbate the polarization in Nigeria today such as socioeconomic status, tribalism, and the education gap.
