The '''Foundation for Interreligious and Intercultural Research and Dialogue''' ('''FIIRD''') is a registered charitable organization in Alberta, Canada.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Foundation for Intercultural and Interreligious Dialogue Initiatives (FIIDI) |url=https://fiidi.org/ |access-date=2022-10-22 |website=FIIDI |language=en-US}}</ref> 

The main program of the FIIRD is to enhance knowledge and the critical examination of the wellsprings of each religious tradition and then to acquire the linguistic and strategic tools needed to study the normative scriptures of these religions without syncretism or proselytism. It was founded in 1999, and sponsored by the [[Levant Foundation]] with the [[University of Geneva]] in Switzerland.<ref>[https://wwwunige.ch/presse/static/fiird-en.pdf University of Geneva official website]</ref> FIIRD later became known as FIIDI.

==Projects and Goals==
In 2006 the FIIRD has published a boxed set of three holy books: the Hebrew Bible, the New Testament, and the Holy Qur'an.

Another goal of the FIIRD, supported by the Levant Foundation, was to create a post-doctoral program at the [[University of Geneva]] in the field of interreligious and intercultural dialogue whereby several Fellows, each possessing a Ph.D. in multiple subjects, and those who are dedicated to further their knowledge and understanding of the monotheistic religions, participate in approved research and publish their results all done with the goal of searching for peace between the Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

==Activities and Partnerships==
In 2019, FIIDI partnered with [[Girls Not Brides]].<ref>[https://www.girlsnotbrides.org/our-partnership/member-directory/foundation-for-intercultural-and-interreligious-dialogue-initiatives-fiidi/#:~:text=Girls%20Not%20Brides-,Foundation%20for%20Intercultural%20and%20Interreligious%20Dialogue%20Initiatives%20(FIIDI),to%20stand%20up%20for%20peace Girls Not Brides, official website]</ref>
