UPF's International Leadership Conferences focus on the urgent need for new vision and leadership based on core values and universal principles of peacebuilding. These conferences have three objectives:

• To give an in-depth analysis of root causes of conflicts, providing a sound basis for evaluating development and peacebuilding efforts and fostering interreligious and intercultural cooperation.
• To identify “best practices” responses to conflict and violence.
• To consider ways the UPF’s network of Ambassadors for Peace can support the UN’s mission to secure peace, accomplish the Millennium Development Goals, and encourage sustainable development.
• To promote interreligious peace councils at national and regional levels as well as at the UN.

The presentations below can be given at conferences and seminars or studied by individuals and groups. For reports of UPF's international conferences, click here.
