Mandate

The following philosophy underpins the creation and purpose of the Canadian International Peace Project:

• The Canadian International Peace Project brings together groups and people from a diverse cross-section of the community including faith communities, schools, universities, businesses, civic, social, government and other organizations, institutions and individuals to build partnerships and work together on projects locally, nationally and internationally on issues of ethno-racial relations, peace, conflict resolution, pluralism, community education, economic development, safety and security.

• Through its work, the Canadian International Peace Project seeks to promote mutual respect and greater understanding among Canadians and people around the world of different religious, racial, ethnic, linguistic, national, cultural or other definable backgrounds.

• The Canadian International Peace Project does not advocate nor promote any ideas or positions that will cause disharmony among any religious, ethnic, national, linguistic, cultural or other communities. The organisation seeks to constructively engage communities, especially those in conflict, to develop peaceful and meaningful approaches to further the resolution of disputes.
