Media

We use many types of media to provide a global opportunity for participation by all people, especially by those whose voices are not often heard.
Center for Religious Tolerance CC hosts the "Let's Talk About the Middle East" podcast.

URI Cooperation Circles spread their message of peace through a variety of media types to reach people all over the world by television, film, radio, print, social media, and more.

Examples of our work in this Action Area:

  • The URI Cambodia Regional Coordinator runs a radio show where curious callers can ask questions about other religions.
  • Think Peace Media and Communications, a URI Multiregion CC based in Texas, USA, uses interviews, photo contests, and other forums to "give voice to the voiceless and attention to the healing of the world."
  • Youth of Peace, Yemen, helps youth find their voice amidst a country torn by war, by training them in producing their own documentary films promoting tolerance, respect, and religious freedom.

Ektaan CC opens new computer training center at local Mosque

Dear Friends,

Namaste and greetings of peace from India. Here are some pictures of another computer center which opened a few weeks ago with the help of the members from the local Mosque. This is the first time in the area that a computer training program has been run by URI inside the Mosque premises. URI member Md. Sarfaraz oversees the project. We expect to run a complete educational program and engage the larger community, especially targeting children from different communities to attend classes at the center. This will allow children from other communities to an opportunity to attend the Mosque and become familiar with other religions through engagement and open interaction with other children. This initiative had been planned for a long time. So it’s now being born, we are moving forward with much concrete steps to develop the plan further for greater impact.
