Values
The three Abrahamic religions, Islam, Christianity, and Judaism call for peace, love, mercy, and cooperation.
Vision
To fully appreciate what humanity has accomplished in the twenty-first century, and effectively confront the challenges we still face, we need to look through the window of the past, learn from the lessons of previous civilizations and cultures, and listen with both the mind and the heart, not just the ear, to what they can teach us.
Mission
To foster cooperation rather than confrontation among different religions and cultures.
Goals
To focus on factors that led to the rise and fall of previous civilizations and how people of this millennium can benefit from lessons of the past in a world literally changing to a global village.
Approach
Short Exchange Programs involving professionals, clergy, law enforcement personnel and students with different topics being discussed each year. Cultural Orientations to enhance the understanding of religious and cultural issues of exchange students, host families, and staff members. National and International conferences, symposiums and seminars involving scholars from various backgrounds. Educating people about the common roots of traditions is one of the most important focus of our activities. Learning leads to better understanding, which in the end leads to mutual appreciation and peace.
