The talks, attended by 12 Muslim and 12 Catholic experts, under the presidency of Cardinal Jean-Louis Tauran, president of the Pontifical Council for Interfaith Dialogue and Mohamed Ahmed Sherif, general secretary of the World Islamic Call Society will focus on three topics for reflection: ;religious Responsibility', 'Cultural and Social Responsibilities' and 'periods of Crisis in the Path of Interfaith Dialogue'.
