To foster peaceful conflict resolution and intercultural appreciation by providing a public forum that is accessible to all voices of reason, tolerance and compassion.

ilmworks provides new media platforms for informed and candid discussions about the economic, cultural and religious aspects of intercultural cooperation and conflict. We give voice to ordinary people of all religious traditions regarding their views about the critical issues of peace, justice and globalization.

Recognizing that the challenges of globalization are not only economic and cultural but also religious, ilmworks seeks to encourage informed and honest discussions of critical issues facing ordinary people from apparently dissimilar cultures and historical experiences to help build a better global society for everyone.

ilmworks considers the involvement of youth in addressing and helping solve the most contentious and complex issues of our time to be vital.  We actively seek the engagement of students of diverse backgrounds, fields of study and educational institutions in the United States and around the world in our projects.
