Other Action Areas

URI Cooperation Circles serve many different communities across a wide range of fields and disciplines.

One of the goals of the new URI website is to organize CCs doing similar work into Action Areas via the Internet. Peacebuilding and youth are areas that already have significant momentum, leadership and staff support. Environment, education and women are emerging areas with similar energy behind them. Other critical areas of service include:

  • Economic Development
  • Health care, including HIV/AIDS
  • Humanitarian Aid
  • Indigenous People
  • Labor
  • Religious Freedom
  • Service to the Poor
  • Spirituality

Watch the Action Areas menu grow as CCs working on these issues step forward to offer leadership in organizing and connecting CCs around them, creating truly global movements for positive social change.
