"There can be no peace among the nations without peace among the religions. No peace among the religions without dialogue among the religions" - Hans Kung, 1993
In a world besieged by terror and injustice, the United Religions Initiative holds the promise of a better way. Its purpose, endorsed by thousands of members world-wide, is:
"to promote enduring, daily interfaith cooperation, to end religiously motivated violence and to create cultures of peace, justice and healing for the earth and all living beings."
The VPAR Global Inquiry will promote peace among religions by:
- Providing a safe catalyst that frees people to have different more compassionate conversations and relationships.
- Raising up stories of peace that can remind people who and what they are when they and their religious and spiritual traditions are at their very best.
- Generating positive shared images of peace among religions, which in turn provides much-needed hope for the future.
- Provide opportunities for local relationship-building, with a global focus and support.
- Recording and disseminating these stories, hopes, and dreams throughout the world.
- Providing opportunities for people to come together to implement the best ideas and practices for peacemaking, that have been generated through the Inquiry.
