DESCRIPTION:Dr. Khazeh Fananapazir has been engaged in interfaith dialogue
  since the 1970s\, an interest that increased commensurately with the rise
  of various fundamentalist groups in the ‘70s and ‘80s\, especially af
 ter 9/11. His research focuses on two pivotal questions: \n\n(1) Is there 
 any way out of the impasses and misunderstandings between faiths and commu
 nities?\n(2) How can various faith groups work together to achieve unity? 
 \n\nKhazeh believes there is a way out\, and that a hundred years ago that
  way was delineated by ‘Abdu’l-Bahá.\n\n*Speaker Bio:* Dr. Khazeh Fan
 anapazir graduated in Medicine from Oxford University and is now a cardio-
