Our Mission

Building bridges through information, understanding and cooperation

We believe in reaching out to all members of society by providing a platform for cultural and information exchange. We believe it is necessary to work in partnership with different segments of society. We collaborate with people in the areas of government and public service; education; sports; academia and media; as well as cultural and religious organisations, NGOs; faith and ethnic communities.
