• Our efforts to counter hatred, intolerance, and indifference must continue simultaneously at individual and structural levels. We must try to influence for good the minds and hearts of individual people through dialogue and confidence building.

Only then will we have a chance to negate the terrible consequences of the tremendous conflicts facing humankind today.
