DOHA — An international center for inter-faith dialogue was unveiled in the Qatari capital Doha on Wednesday, May 9, to foster better understanding among the world's three monotheistic religions.

"The Doha International Center for Inter-faith Dialogue is a practical implementation of the recommendations of the annual Doha inter-faith conferences in the past five years," Dr Aisha Al Mannai, the conference chair, told IslamOnline.net.

"The center will seek contacts with all world countries and will draw up plans for future steps," she said.

The center's basic structure will include a five-member board of directors from Qatar and a seven-member international advisory board.

The board of directors will be chaired by Dr. Ibrahim Saleh Al-Nuaimi, former president of Qatar University.
The advisory board comprises three Muslims, three Christians and a Jewish rabbi.
