Podcast
New episode "Against the norm": we have now reached the point where we can refer to previous episodes. In the first episode, we talked about plans for a Global Cultural Assembly. Now, in June 2025, the planned Assembly has taken place at the Humboldt Forum and laid the foundations for lasting, sustainable, and authentic cooperation between international experts and Humboldt Forum stakeholders. Halfway through the conference week, four members of the Preparatory Group answered our questions about their work and gave us an insight into what they hope to achieve in the coming years. They were Feride Funda G.-Gençaslan, Fabiano Kueva, Augustine Moukodi, and Achiles Mujunangoma Bufure.

"Europe's largest cultural center in the Old Palace in Berlin will open its exhibition rooms on Islam on September 17, 2022.

The exhibition is curated by the Order's representative and chairwoman Hajja Feride F. G.-Gençaslan, who will also be responsible for all future events of the Rabbaniyya Sufi Center at the Humboldt Forum.
