Abstract
This article examines interfaith dialogue (IFD) as a transformative tool for combating religious discrimination and fostering inclusive societies. Drawing from theological insights and practical applications, the study explores the historical, social, and psychological roots of religious discrimination, highlighting how IFD can bridge divides and promote mutual understanding. Inclusive theologies and pluralist frameworks, including phenomenological pluralism, are analyzed to underscore their contributions to creating dialogical spaces where diverse religious identities coexist and thrive. Through detailed case studies and an evaluation of practical strategies, the article demonstrates the effectiveness of IFD in reducing stereotypes, promoting human rights, and cultivating intercommunal trust. It also introduces innovative methods for implementing IFD, addressing challenges, and leveraging digital platforms to extend its reach. Ultimately, the research affirms IFD's vital role in addressing the complexities of a pluralistic world while inspiring future initiatives for peacebuilding and reconciliation.
