Religious pluralism in West Africa is characterized by coexistence of diverse religious traditions such as Christianity, Islam, and indigenous beliefs. This article employs qualitative thematic analysis to explore existing literature on religious pluralism and inter-faith relations in West Africa, focusing on Ethiopia as a case study. The theoretical framework elucidates key mechanisms for enhancing inter-faith relations and mitigating conflicts through collaborative efforts across various religious communities. Policy makers should encourage more inclusive educational programmes that promote inter-faith dialogue to build a harmonious society in West Africa.
