Advocating
for
Peace

By embracing and leveraging our unique identity as global diasporas, we advocate for peace and justice of the communities of our belongings, locally and globally.

 

Our core values

Relate

We acknowledge the fact that we are not only interconnected, but need each other. We respect and value everyone as same with equal rights. We strive to love and serve one another as my own body. We believe in the value of communication and try best to understand each other, even when it is difficult.

Reconcile

We strive to live at peace with everyone as much as possible, and when there is a conflict—at levels of personal, communal, national, and global—, we strive to transform it to create harmony.

Reason

We respect different thoughts and opinions. We agree to disagree. We investigate, think, and debate hard to arrive at a solution. We are ready to listen and learn in all circumstances.

Represent

We acknowledge the fact that we are all unique on our own. We do not eliminate, but celebrate and respect, diversity. We raise our voices as individuals and community to important issues.

Resolve

We do not ignore but try our best to come up with solutions to issues that we recognize as problems. We try hard not to give up.
