Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions

The Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions is held once every three years in Astana (then known as Nur-Sultan), Kazakhstan. The Congress was initiated by President Nursultan Nazarbaev.[1] The Congress attempts to foster mutual recognition among religious leaders and facilitate their constructive cooperation in addressing social, cultural, and religious issues.[2]

The Congress is regularly attended by representatives of the clergy from Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Shintoism, Taoism, and other traditional religions.[3]
