A Brief History of IRCK
The Inter-Religious Council of Kenya (IRCK) is a coalition of all major faith communities in Kenya that works together to deepen inter-faith dialogue and collaboration among members for a common endeavour to mobilise the unique moral and social resources of religious people and address shared concerns
The existence of IRCK between1983-2002 was characterised by conference participation and interspersed, yet adhoc, inter-faith dialogue and action. There lacked a structured and systematic mode of conducting her affairs and, therefore, the success of the undertaken activities heavily relied on the commitment of a few of her core members.
