IRD Activities

  • Service to Peace-Making the World More Human

    The friendship with poor people led Sant'Egidio to understand better that war is the mother of poverty. In this way love for poor people, in many situations, became work for peace, protecting it wherever it is jeopardised, helping to rebuild it, and facilitating dialogue where it had been lost. The means of this service to peace and to reconciliation are the weak means of prayer, of sharing difficult situations, meeting and dialogue

  • International Meetings of Prayer for Peace

    The inter-religious international meetings started in the mid-80's, as an initiative of the Community of Sant' Egidio, with the aim of promoting mutual understanding and dialogue among religions, in a horizon of peace.
