love, brotherhood and harmony to achieve a pluralistic society with cosmopolitan culture

Explanation:

Interfaith Movement refers to positive, generous, cooperative and constructive interaction between people of different faiths, traditions and beliefs. It promotes harmony and love in the society by means of dialogue as well as mutual cooperation at both the individual and institutional levels.

Interfaith largely refers to interaction between followers of Abrahamic religions. Example: Jews, Christians and Muslims.

Since 1960s there have been several institutions set up all over the world to promote the movement:

Temple of Understanding (1960)

World Council of Churches (1961)

Interfaith Conference of Metropolitan Washington (1978)

Minhaj-ul-Quran (1981)

All these institutions promoted love, brotherhood and harmony to achieve a pluralistic society with cosmopolitan culture.
