From October 20 – 24, 2017, URI Europe’s new chairman, Dr. Duncan Wielzen, visited Bonn for various interfaith encounters and activities.

He met up with members of the URI Europe support team for strategy planning; encountered members of various URI Cooperation Circles, i.e. URI Germany e.V., the DMLBonn e.V. and the Intercultural Circle Bonn; and participated in the celebrations for the Baha’i Twin Holy Days – the birthdays of the faith’s founders.

Duncan is a Catholic parish worker from Monster near The Hague and was elected as URI Europe chairman in May this year.
