British-Muslim-Charitable-Organisations-MBRN

About The Event

MBRN conference

Date: January 15, 2020

Venue: Humanitarian Academy for Development, 22-24 Sampson Rd N, Birmingham, B11 1BL UK

Organized by: The Muslims in Britain Research Network in partnership with the Muslim Charities Forum and the Humanitarian Academy for Development

This event is for scholars and practitioners working in, working with or researching Muslim charities that are based in the United Kingdom but conduct charitable activities throughout the world. British Muslim INGOs have been in operation in the UK since the early eighties. Since then, the sector has grown and now includes over a hundred charities which have a total spend of just under half a billion pounds annually.

These charities have been at the forefront of providing aid in times of crisis and in supporting long term economic development in some of the poorest parts of the world. At this conference, scholars and practitioners from across this sector will showcase their work from the field and discuss and debate the challenges the sector faces, whether to do with fundraising, policy contexts, or working internationally. Papers will either focus on a specific aspect of British Muslim charity that presenters wish to highlight as best practice, or seek to open debates about working in any aspect of development work. The conference organizers intend to collect all or part of the proceedings of the conference to be published in book form.

The call for papers for this event has now closed, but all are welcome to register to attend.

The Muslims in Britain Research Network is a network of academics, researchers and practitioners that specializes in studying and supporting the development of the British Muslim community. The Muslim Charities Forum has been studying the sector for the past year and will be launching its research into the charity sector at this event. The Humanitarian Academy for Development is a center of excellence serving the leadership, research and talent development needs of the humanitarian sector.
