The Soft Power of the Umma

Description

Istanbul Meetup | The Soft Power of the Ummah

Join us as we explore the strategic concept of Ummatic Soft Power, a pivotal framework for the revival of the Muslim Umma’s global influence. This event will delve into how cultural appeal, intellectual leadership, and ethical governance can reshape global narratives and promote collective Muslim interests across key domains such as religion, culture, economics, and technology.

Dr. Anas Altikriti will highlight the importance of decentralized, transnational networks—Collaboratives of Ummatic Soft Power (CUSPs)—to foster global cooperation and cultivate a unified Umma capable of driving positive, Islamically-grounded global change.
