On behalf of Global Dialogue Foundation, webelieve that;
Dialogue is and should be the way ofdeveloping this world
towards a brighterfuture
Without dialogue, we cannot be understoodand helped as we
deserve at the right timeand place
We will not know about the needs of othersor express our own
needs to others,therefore cannot solve issues timely,correctly and
friendly, unfortunately leading
to complications inter-connected withhumankind and society.
As ordinary citizens from beautiful planet Earth,we will try in
an ordinary manner to articulatewhat we think is important for
humankind ingeneral, as well for our planet as a unique
livingentity in it's own way, and with appropriatefriendly actions,
try to help others with dialogue.

The increasing diversity of our societies - be itethnic,
linguistic, religious or cultural - is indeedgenerating anxiety
among populations, drivingcommunities apart and putting
peace,development and democracy under mountingpressure.
New technology and new media are connectingpeople around the
world in ways we could notimagine just a decade ago. The
ongoingdevelopment of information and communication
technologies is raising our awareness that weare all part of a
global community. At the same
time, they make it easier to learn about the socialand economic
disparities that are widening withinand between countries.
People are often unprepared to cope withchanges that are now

world.The global development agenda cannot beachieved by only
focusing on economic andsocial indicators or factoring in the
impact ofclimate change.
The true potential for economic and socialdevelopment cannot be
achieved without thepeaceful coexistence of cultures.
Goodgovernance, therefore, involves respectingdiversity and finding
ways to incorporateintercultural dialogue into the governmental
policies and strategies that aim to play a role inachieving
peace and development.
We believe that not only the Buddhist, but also the Atheist, the
Muslim, the Orthodox, the Catholic, theJew, the Protestant and the
Hindu and so on aim to live a comfortable safe, peaceful life, to
enjoythemselves and be happy with their families, relatives, their
inheritance, and that they all feel love andsorrow, joy and grief
equally. Even our anatomic structure is the same, although our
outer appearancediffers in details, which is a drop in the ocean in
comparison to what unites us.
Only with this kind of well balanced material and spiritual
level society, and only along this kind of wellbalanced
spiritual/material path, and with dialogue, humankind can finally
start to build its own future withpast negative experiences as the
driving force for creating a better, brighter sustainable
environment and asafer World as a masterpiece of all, as ordinary
citizens from beautiful planet Earth.
