How was our first week of Ramadan? In this post, we share photos from our iftar dinners in the first week of the Islamic month of fasting.
Ramadan is the holy month of fasting for Muslims. Our Association for intercultural dialogue MKD is proud to share our iftar dinners have become an annual tradition by now. In our quarters and in homes of Turkish families, we host so called open iftars. To these festive dinners we invite our friends, coworkers and volunteers from other associations and institutions, with whom we collaborate all year long.
This year, we have also started gathering at sunset in the first week of Ramadan. At sundown, it is time to break the daily fast. Our guests join us for traditional Ramadan dishes. While sharing a delicious meal, there is plenty of time for pleasant intercultural exchange and conversation. Our guests from different cultural backgrounds happily chat with our volunteers and iftar hosts.
In the first week, we hosted representatives of the Belarusian diaspora in Slovenia and members of the Cultural Tourist Association Bazilika. We also invited members of the Danilo Kiš Cultural Centre and representatives of the United Nations Association for Slovenia.
At Radio Študent, we hosted an iftar dinner for the associates and volunteers of the radio station. We are proud to work with the radio team ourselves, as we prepare the monthly episodes of the radio show Enolončnica.
