Label: Purpose & Activities

Our purpose is to foster healing through music, art and cultures. To create a communal platform of cross- cultural dialogues and develop understanding among traditions through shared learning for a peaceful and blissful community.

One of our major programs is Journey of Peace, an ongoing Ektaan project to nurture and preserve traditional harmonious festivals in rural communities in India. We also have a computer educational program where we teach children and youth in areas where there are no opportunities of learning computer. Many of these youth learn the computer and later on teach it to other youth. We also hold interfaith, intercultural music performance involving children and women, record and publish CDs, and promote local musicians and artists.

Using music as a vehicle for breaking barriers and to create cultures of peace for all living beings

Ektaan CC opens new computer training center at local Mosque

Dear Friends,

Namaste and greetings of peace from India. Here are some pictures of another computer center which opened a few weeks ago with the help of the members from the local Mosque. This is the first time in the area that a computer training program has been run by URI inside the Mosque premises. URI member Md. Sarfaraz oversees the project. We expect to run a complete educational program and engage the larger community, especially targeting children from different communities to attend classes at the center. This will allow children from other communities to an opportunity to attend the Mosque and become familiar with other religions through engagement and open interaction with other children. This initiative had been planned for a long time. So it’s now being born, we are moving forward with much concrete steps to develop the plan further for greater impact.
