Bridging Bias and Building Unity Through Multi-Faith Peacemaking

Our Mission

Social change begins with local leadership. When leaders are equipped with knowledge, communication skills, and support networks, they can interrupt bias and hate in their communities

- We bridge bias by countering disinformation and fear with facts, empathy, and personal relationships.

- We build unity by bringing people from different wisdom traditions together around shared values.

- We support social justice by teaching leaders, individuals, and groups how to be authentic allies and work together for social change.
