With over 800,000 Muslims living in Australia and the prevalence of misconceptions and negative stereotypes about Islam, the Bachar Houli Foundation has developed a ‘Discovering Islam’ workshop to provide a fundamental understanding of the religion as well as how to create an inclusive and safe work environment for Muslim employees.
The workshop aims to cultivate knowledge and understanding of Islam while empowering participants to foster a welcoming and inclusive work environment for Muslim colleagues, employees, players, and coaches.
The Bachar Houli Foundation’s annual Iftar dinners aim to provide insight and industry education into the holy month of Ramadan, which is celebrated by over 1.8 billion Muslims around the world.
Across five states, the Bachar Houli Foundation hosts Iftar dinners in conjunction with the AFL, Richmond Football Club, GWS Giants, SANFL, AFLQ and the WAFC, and reaches over 1,000 guests annually.
Powered by the Bachar Houli Foundation, the Islamic College of Sport is an independent senior secondary school, offering young Muslim students an opportunity to pursue their passion for sport in a religiously and culturally welcoming environment.
Students get to explore their faith and sense of identity while completing a holistic and applied education that is connected to genuine sports industry and community experiences.
Students at the College study and receive the Victorian Certificate of Education – Vocational Major.
