The Community Accord Initiative is a mediation service based in Bradford that helps to resolve community conflict. It runs a number of projects around inter-faith issues in the local area, and employs a project worker who has a particular focus on young people.

One of their projects is 'Intergenerational Barriers' which brings together young and older people to engage them in constructive dialogue. It provides an opportunity for people from different generations to discuss their cultural and personal concerns and opinions of each other. All the participants are from diverse faiths and backgrounds.

The project organises a range of events, including joint activities such as indoor sports and creative writing classes. They also run 'Intergenerational Question Time', which is a facilitated discussion around various issues, including religion.

Community Accord is a good point of contact for people wanting to find out more about inter-faith relations in the Bradford area. They are further developing their work with young people.
