MISSION STATEMENT<br />
<strong>The</strong> nature of the relationship between different faith traditions, in the UK and elsewhere, is a key concern of the Centre. Friction and<br />
conflicts can occur on the interface between faith, sometimes leading to violence and the persecution of religious minorities.<br />
Our aim is to develop practical, constructive approaches which enable people of different faiths to work creatively with the different<br />
perspectives they hold, rather than see these as barrier to understanding and co-operation or pretend that unity is easy.<br />
Founding year 1993.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se projects include:<br />
