our work
Our six key priorities guide our
ongoing initiatives.
Six Key Priorities
Peaceful, Just, and Inclusive Societies
Our faith traditions inspire us to be changemakers where conflict, mass displacement, poverty, violent extremism and inequality call for common action
Gender Equality
Equality for women and girls is a foundation for securing a more peaceful and inclusive world for all people.
The Environment
Recognising the intimate connection between all forms of life and communities, we are committed to nurturing a sustainable environment.
Freedom of Thought, Conscience, and Religion
Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion. We bring faith communities together to champion this right for all.
Interreligious Education
Understanding diverse traditions is vital to increasing trust, respect, and cooperation among all people and faiths.
Global Partnerships
Strong partnerships with governments, civil society, and faith-based organisations ensures that our work is effective and leaves no one behind.
