the mission to foster interfaith and intercultural dialogue, stimulate
thinking and exchange of opinions on supporting and fostering democracy
and peace all over the world and to provide a common platform for
education and information exchange. With this mission, the Forum set up 4 Centers under its umbrella, namely;
