Corporate Talk: Gwen Griffith-Dickson

Griffith-Dickson is the founder and director of the Lokahi Foundation, an independent research organisation and social impact charity. Lokahi’s mission is to enable society to embrace religious diversity with respect and understanding. One of its nationwide program built common ground between police and Muslim communities, and was the only community program in Britain to prevent a terrorist attack. She has a very unique perspective to share with us on the war on terror, which at its core is a war of ideals.
