International Interfaith Centre, Oxford
The International Interfaith Centre was inaugurated in Oxford, UK on
6 December 1993, inspired by the 1993 Year of Interreligious Understanding
and Cooperation. As a result of the increasing amount and variety
of interfaith activity around the world, it was perceived that a
need could be met by an international, interfaith centre which was
informed about all these different efforts and able to encourage
continuing interfaith understanding and cooperation.

International Committee for the Peace Council
An International & Interfaith Group of Religious Leaders
The Peace Council is a diverse group of religious and spiritual individuals
who are internationally known and respected and who have decided to
come together, as the Dalai Lama wrote in a recent letter, »to
understand one another and work together so that those of us who profess
belief in our respective faiths can work for the common cause of humanity.« He
added, »I believe that such a joint effort can set the right example
for the rest of the world.«

MultiFaithNet
World Religions Information and Inter-Faith Dialogue
There are vast and growing amounts of Internet material on religion.
MultiFaithNet is a new self-access research, learning, information
and dialogue tool.
It provides regularly updated subscription access to global electronic
resources and interactions useful for study of world religious traditions
and communities and the practice of inter-faith dialogue.
As an electronic »gateway« MultiFaithNet offers »signposts« to
help users. Without »gateways« and »signposts« it
is difficult to distinguish between types of material or to be clear
about their provenance.
It is invaluable for those with information, community liaison and
equal opportunities responsibilities in the public, private and voluntary
(including religious) sectors.
MultiFaithNet also offers a participative electronic forum for news,
dialogue and debate among and between faith communitites.
MultiFaithNet builds upon the track record of the University of Derby's
Religious Resource and Research Centre in producing Religions in the
UK: A Multi-Faith Directory and Religions in the UK: On-line (1997),
jointly with the Inter Faith Network for the UK.
MultiFaithNet works according to an explicit editorial policy with
a panel of consultants drawn from the religious traditions which it
covers and from academics with expertise in respect of these traditions.
