The Islamic World International Conference (IWIC) theme for 2013 is Eradicating Islamophobia: A conversation around women in Islam. This 3 day conference features speakers from around the world who have converged to dialog on changing the negative perceptions of Muslim people. The conference also serves to highlight the valuable contribution of women in the faith. The conference—in line with the mission of IWIC—aims to promote the essence of the peaceful message conveyed by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). This year’s conference features topics—many of which are facilitated by Muslim women visionaries and scholars—such as “Muslim Women in America: Challenges of an Islamic Identity”, “Islam and Political Activism in the West”, and “Muslim Families in Secular Courts: Creating our Own Community System”.
