society
Our goal is to develop stronger global citizenship among people in the UK and worldwide. Global citizenship not only builds understanding of how countries, cultures and people differ but also builds a strong awareness of the values that we share. By fostering trust and understanding between people, communities, faiths, nations and cultures we help to address major issues such as sustainable economic growth, social cohesion, unemployment and mitigating the effects of climate change. We are involved in far reaching programmes around 'Culture and Development' and 'Culture and Conflict'.
