Title: Review of the Evidence Base on Faith Communities Summary: This report reviews the evidence base relating to the demographic, socio-economic and cultural characteristics of ‘emerging’ faith communities, specifically the Hindu, Muslim and Sikh populations together with the likely future trends within them. The evidence base that was reviewed was selected according to: its relevance to the ODPM’s strategic priorities of Housing Supply and Demand; Decent Places to Live; Tackling Disadvantage; Delivering Better Services; and Promoting the Development of the English Regions, and its bearing on the relationship between faith and other equalities strands in terms of ethnicity, gender, sexuality and disability. This report primarily reviews relevant publications and ‘grey’ literature produced during the past ten years. In some instances, where the work concerned illustrates a more recent development, or where the research concerned was particularly seminal and/or has not been superseded by more up-to-date research, older research and publications are also referred to. In addition, the members of the project team have manipulated and analysed available data sets, also drawing on some of their own primary research. Finally, a number of semi-structured interviews were conducted with key community informants and academic experts in order to inform awareness of the key issues within the evidence base.
