The URI Resource Library is a collection of downloadable materials and links to a variety of resources that support interfaith peacebuilding work.
Featured Resources

URI for Kids
A beautifully designed curriculum for children (and learners of all ages) that introduces URI's Preamble, Purpose and Principles, and provides excellent information and activities about different world religions and spiritual traditions.
Interfaith Peacebuilding Guide
The URI Interfaith Peacebuilding Guide is a resource for interfaith groups — those “everyday gandhis” who are making a difference one meeting at a time in their local communities.
URI’s foundational Charter was created over a four year period (1996 -2000) by hundreds of people from different cultures, nations and perspectives. It includes URI’s Preamble, Purpose and Principles, Organizational Design, Global Council composition, and Guidelines for Action as written at that time.

This outlines an Interfaith Peace Prayer Ceremony which was first performed at the Public Forum at the URI Global Summit in 1997, with large banners representing different faith traditions. It is one representation of the spirit of the United Religions Initiative. As URI has evolved, we would now expand this guide to include Indigenous expressions of spirituality.
