We at KAICIID believe in dialogue and its power to foster respect, understanding and peaceful coexistence among people of different faiths and cultures. We are motivated by our conviction that all religions, faiths and cultures are united by shared human values that are also fundamental sources of protection for human dignity and the equal worth of all human beings. We are convinced that through dialogue, we can put an end to the abuse of religion to justify repression, violence and conflict. This short factsheet explains what we do, where we work and why dialogue is so important in our world today.
