•    Cultivating Inner Peace – cultivating inner peace, involving personal growth and reflection, self-awareness, confronting personal and family issues, finding direction in life. Issues: despair, anxieties, stress, addictions, narcissism, ego-centrism, materialism.
•    Promoting of Human Rights – valuing human dignity, respecting, protecting and promoting rights of others and oneself. Issues: discrimination, political killings, violations of rights of marginalized groups (women, children, minorities).
•    Living with Justice and Compassion – promoting justice and compassion. Issues: violence caused by unjust systems in the local as well as the global level that cause undue suffering, poverty, hunger, graft and corruption.
•    Dismantling the Culture of War – dismantling the culture of war. Issues: proliferation of arms (small arms, weapons of mass destruction), “use of force” in the form of intimidation, bullying and campus violence, or violence against women and children (VAWC).
•    Intercultural Respect, Reconciliation and Solidarity – promoting intercultural respect, reconciliation, and understanding. Issues: violence and injustice caused by racism, stereotyping, and discrimination.
