The United Religions Initiative (URI) is a global interfaith community engaging over one million people from around 120 different religions, spiritual expressions and indigenous traditions organized in more than 350 Cooperation Circles from 65 countries throughout the world (grouped into nine regions). URI-SEAP is the regional community in the Southeast Asia and the Pacific dedicated to interfaith understanding, cooperation, and harmony. See www.uriseapacific.org and www.uriseapnewsletter.blogspot.com
The program formally started with interfaith prayers, then a spirit-filled song number called, “Dream the Light” (composed by Dr. Herm Weaver--on the guitar) by the delegates of the URI peacebuilding teams.
