Faith Hope Love Communities (Cape Town, South Africa)
Faith Hope Love Communities (FHLC) has members who represent African Religion, Buddhism, Christianity, Interfaith/Inter-
Spiritual, Islam, and the Khoisan Tradition and Religion. The Founder and Director had a vision that together we can do more to
help people to discover themselves. FHLC´s members believe that people of faith are doing a lot of good work without being aware of what others like them are doing. They have experienced that, if there is a will to share with each other, people are often pleasantly surprised by how
similar they are in their approaches to help the community and bring about Peace and Harmony.
Adriel, Anekal (Bangalore, South India)
Adriel, Anekal is a new group organizing and involving youth from the area to address religiously and socially motivated unrest.
Adriel members belong to different religious and cultural groups. The area had a few incidents of community conflicts among
Hindus and Muslims. Interfaith bridge-building is very essential to mitigate the impact of such conflicts. Members of a youth
club engaged in solving the problem, and they were able to bring under control the impact of the violent situation, establishing
peace. With this background, they decided to join URI and be a permanent peacebuilding resource.
