Interreligous Coordinating Council in Israel — ICCI
View the agency’s website
Would you believe that today, right now, despite everything detrimental to dialogue
taking place among the religious communities in Israel, 70 Muslim, Jewish, and
Christian institutions actively work toward interreligious and intercultural
understanding in Israel and the region? It is true. With religious leaders participating,
ICCI activities reach thousands of people from every background. They build
confidence and trust, shatter negative stereotypes, ignorance and prejudice.
Thanks to ICCI, more and more religious leaders are turning from spewing words
of hate and violence. Instead of contributing to the problem, these leaders
now contribute to the solution. You didn't know this was possible and happening
in Israel today. It is!
70 religious institutions send leaders to clarify issues, and provide a framework
for building relationships.
It is a great blessing when religion is used by its clerics to promote peace
and understanding. Thanks to ICCI that blessing takes place every day in a most
troubled land!
