The Jubilo1 Project

A comparative approach to intercultural and interfaith dialogue.  Conflict prevention and transformation, ethnic integration and peacebuilding.

Under the Culture-Education Programmes. Addressing the SDGs 4 and 16.

ENDORSED BY THE COUNCIL OF 100 LEADERS OF THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM, DAVOS 2006.

The project, supervised by an international Advisory Board, fosters the conflict prevention, ethnic integration and peace building actions through a comparative in-depth, open, respectful and tolerant dialogue among the Abrahamic faiths and cultures. It embodies a threefold structure: The Abraham’s Legacy television series, The Spirit Inspires my Way multimedia series and the Tea for Peace round-table dialogues.

By prompting the comparative vision, the Project underlines the contribution of different cultures to our common heritage and lifestyles; raises awareness of the importance of exploring together the means to develop an active participation in our society respecting cultural diversity – cornerstone for a sustainable peace process and world unity in a community based on common shared values. It tests, influences and informs public policy.

It is a powerful educational agent able to reach all segments of the international society, educating – particularly young people – beyond schools and curricula to the vital values and sense of belonging to the human community of global citizen.
