We see ourselves as a bridge between religious, ethnic and community groups. By being part of the IRCC network, leaders from these various groups can come together to build friendship and trust.


We also seek to deepen Singaporeans’ understanding of various faiths, beliefs and practices. For example, through inter-faith and inter-ethnic activities, such as heritage trails, dialogues, visits to places of worship, ethnic and religious celebrations, which are open to the community.

  • Build familiarity and strengthen relationships among and between ethnic, religious and community leaders.
  • Promote mutual understanding and appreciation of the different religions, cultures and practices among Singaporeans.
  • Facilitate collaborations among and between ethnic, religious and community groups for social and community causes.
  • Maintain social cohesion and instil solidarity in times of racial and religious tensions and conflicts.
