Our Public Relations Consultancy work has recently focused on Community Cohesion issues relating to the current climate of Muslim/Secular relations and the resulting need for the promotion of understanding and greater integration.
This has involved working closely with the Festival of Muslim Cultures www.muslimcultures.org who have been engaged in a year long celebration of Arts, Humanities, Education and Discourse that seeks to foster an improved understanding and appreciation of Muslim culture. The festival has been made possible by a number of partners working together to produce an exciting programme of events, displays and exhibitions.
Since 2006 Arts Versa has been developing a proposal to build on the success of the FMC by connecting their cultural vision to the British grassroots communities. As a result The Paul Hamlyn Foundation are now working with FMC and ourselves through Mohsin Abbas in developing this project.
Our consultancy work also includes developing startegies for conflict resolution in partnership with Charities such as Forward Thinking www.forwardthinking.org IEMed Institute and NATO amongst many others.
In the Media world we have championed the cause of Diversity and are currently advising the BBC in their Recruitment and Training of Ethnic minorities as well as running Media Courses for organisations such as the Al Khoee Foundation.A number of Independent Television and Radio channels are also currently in consultation with us about their launch strategies.
