Baha’i World Publication Is Now Online

May 26, 2019, in Articles > Books, by

Perhaps you have seen volumes of The Baha’i World line a bookshelf in a Baha’i home. They are serious and dignified tomes, rich in information about the growth of the Faith, tributes to prominent teachers and promoters of the Cause, and thoughtful commentary. They were first published under the care and supervision of Shoghi Effendi, in the early years of his ministry, and they continued to be published until 2006.

Now The Baha’i World is an online publication. While other websites currently feature sections and the type of information found in older printed volumes, the online platform of The Baha’i World elegantly showcases in-depth articles and thoughtful essays. The site launches with articles that explore various themes such as technologypeacerural development and agriculturethe emergence of Baha’i Houses of Worship, and humanitarian relief

The website also features an archive section with downloadable files of the first six volumes of The Baha’i World, with more to come. You can also sign up to receive emails when content is updated by clicking here.

You can find The Baha’i World online here: www.bahaiworld.bahai.org
