Building a culture of kindness for the common good
February 3, 2026 | Washington Hilton
ABOUT HumanKind
Division, outrage, and hostility continue to dominate public life, leaving little room for empathy, compassion, or understanding. In a world where polarization and harsh rhetoric often drown out respect, the simple act of kindness has never been more urgent—or more revolutionary.
HumanKind is about reclaiming what makes us truly human: the ability to treat one another with dignity, to extend grace across differences, and to build relationships rooted in respect and care. Kindness is not weakness; it is the strength that sustains communities, heals wounds, and restores hope.
At the Global Faith Forum 2026, we will explore what it means to live as HumanKind. Together, leaders and neighbors from diverse faiths will address how kindness can transform our civic life, strengthen our sense of citizenship, and inspire us to be better neighbors. Through kindness, we can bring peace, healing, and unity in a fractured world.

The Global Faith Forum is strategically being hosted ahead of the IRF Summit and the National Prayer Breakfast, creating a unique opportunity for multi-faith leaders to engage in dialogue and collaboration. This alignment fosters continuity between these significant events, amplifying the impact of faith-driven conversations on global religious freedom and human dignity.
The IRF Summit 2026 will bring together international religious freedom leaders, advocates from around the world, and a diverse coalition of civil society actors that passionately support religious freedom around the globe.
