Nottingham Annual Islamophobia Conference

Nottingham Annual Islamophobia Conference takes place on 21 November 2026. Venue: Figtree Primary & Nursery, Nottingham.

Islamophobia is an ever increasing issue for our community, effecting muslims and non-muslims alike. Not only through the rising level of hate crime incidents documented across the country, it also effects us in education, from schools through to university, in the workplace, in healthcare, in the media and ever more so in politics. On Saturday the 21st November , we have invited leading organisations and academics tackling Islamophobia, to detail what Islamophobia is, how Islamophobia impacts the muslim community in the UK and to explore what we need to do to tackle it. Islamophobia is a form of racism, and it is only by organisaing as a united community that we can effectively take on this evil. The goals of the conference are: 1. To better understand what Islamophobia is and how it works 2. Hear from organisations tackling it at every level 3. Discuss our shared experiences 4. Create and promote the roll of "Islamophobia leads" in Mosques and Muslim Businesses 5. Identify and prioritise actions to tackle Islamophobia together. With your help and engagement, we aim to make this conference an annual event for Nottingham to work towards real change and protection for our community.
