Study circles meet regularly, and are an opportunity to study the writings of the Baha'i Faith with a small group of people. The meeting times and location of the study circle are arranged by the participants themselves.
The study circle materials used are shared by Baha'is all over the world, and translated into many languages. The facilitator of the study circle is a person who has already taken a sequence of Baha'i study circle courses, including a course on how to facilitate learning in a study circle. Participants memorise Baha'i writings and deepen in their understandings of Baha'i concepts. It is not necessary to be a Baha'i to benefit from the spiritual teachings of the Baha'i Faith in these study circles. People of all backgrounds are warmly encouraged to participate.
