Welcome to the WHW Foundation

The WHW Foundation was established in 2023 by Petra-Beate Schildbach with the aim of promoting understanding between religions and promoting interreligious dialogue.

The three letters stand for three people who meant a lot to the founder.

W = Wali (the giver of life)

H = Helene (who taught the meaning of life)

W = Wakil (who made possible the fulfillment of the purpose of life)

All the disharmony in the world caused by religious differences is the result of human incomprehension that religion is ONE, that truth is ONE, that God is ONE.
