- Healing the Divide
Healing the Divide was created to challenge existing, failed modes of thought and action and to foster the kind of revolutionary transformations needed to break the bonds of ignorance, intolerance and injustice.
"HTD" is committed to generating innovative ideas, supporting courageous change, and seizing this critical moment. Through creative programs, they are bringing people and communities together to build a better world now and for generations to come.
In all activities, HTD is guided by the following principles:
- Inclusiveness- Cultural Sensitivity- Compassion
They believe each of us is responsible for and to one another. Our actions have consequence, and in an age of instantaneous global communication we must always be mindful that what we do to help or harm can be felt around the world in ways we do not always intend.
All of their programs are in service to this ideal: common action for the common good. The strength of HTD programs rests on a unique approach to collaborative partnerships. HTD identifies gifted individuals who embody their guiding principals and bring them together with others from different walks of life to share experience and expertise, provide a platform for their ideas to be shared with wider audiences, and support their on-going projects.
Through Healing the Divide's existing programs, and others to be created in the years to come, we can help build that better world of opportunity, peace and justice that we all desire and need so desperately. Working together, we have the power to transform the world. And because we possess that power, we must answer the call for change today.
