Religions for Peace International was honored with the 2020 Freedom of Worship Award in recognition of its five-decade-long commitment to interreligious cooperation and global peacebuilding. As the world’s largest and most representative multi-religious coalition, the organization was praised for its ability to build bridges between faith communities to reduce hostility in conflict zones. The Roosevelt Foundation specifically highlighted the alliance's role in speaking up for those most in need and its efforts to counter the misuse of religion as a tool for violence and hate. During the 2021 virtual ceremony, Secretary General Prof. Azza Karam accepted the medal, calling on all faiths to "stand together" rather than apart.Continuing its mission into 2026, the organization remains at the forefront of humanitarian and diplomatic action. It has recently focused on its Multi-Religious Humanitarian Fund, which supports grassroots projects across 38 countries, including significant aid efforts in Gaza, Sudan, and Ukraine. In October 2025, Religions for Peace convened a major summit in Sarajevo to renew the global movement for ending wars and upholding international law. Additionally, through its Global Women of Faith Network, it has pioneered initiatives to combat tech-facilitated gender-based violence and advance climate justice, proving that interfaith consensus is a vital catalyst for "shared sacred flourishing" and the protection of human rights everywhere.
