JICRC aims to develop and implement educational programs
geared towards developing the concepts of peace building
using the interfaith perspective of human dignity, equality,
justice and freedom. These programs will tackle issues of:
Coexistence, Democracy, Women's Rights and empowerment in
the MENA region, Children's Rights and Youth rights, and
religious freedom. JICRC firmly believes that there is a
strong correlation between a community's commitment to
promoting tolerance, the degree to which equality between
citizens is legally guaranteed, and the community's
stability and ability to achieve peace. When we use the term
tolerance, we are specifically referring to the legal rights
of different religious, racial, and ethnic groups to
practice their particular beliefs and ways of life, without
being confronted by other groups aiming to limit or change
their practices and freedom of choice within the norms of
law. Interfaith practices allow the opportunity to combine
the efforts of those who believe in promoting human dignity,
tolerance, peace and justice in order to defeat malicious
and unjust behavior and attitudes.
