This timely report features academic and civil society expertise on the evolution of Islamophobia in the UK.

Following the racist, Islamophobic violence that took place this summer, it could not be more important to interrogate how Islamophobia manifests across our society.

Afzal Khan MP (Chair and sponsoring MP)

Layla Aitlhadj (Director Prevent Watch)

Maisha Islam

Professor Nasar Meer

Dr Shabna Begum (CEO Runnymede Trust)

Doors will open at 6.15pm for tea/coffee

Panel event starts at 6.30pm

The post panel network building session will be an opportunity for stakeholders to share ideas and reflect on how to take the report findings forward.

You will need to go through airport-style security at the Portcullis House Visitor Entrance to attend, found on the map. Please ensure you have this invitation and photo ID to ensure entrance through security. It is recommended that you allow 30-45 minutes to go through security.
