WIHW: United Religions Initiative

United Religions Initiative is a global grassroots network with the mission of promoting enduring, daily interfaith cooperation, to end religiously motivated violence and to create cultures of peace, justice and healing for the Earth and all living beings. Our big family is comprised of 668 Cooperation Circles (groups of at least seven members representing least three different spiritual expressions) in 85 countries. Many of the global office staff are in the URI offices located at the Presidio in San Francisco.


Sixty two of the Cooperation Circles are located in the U.S. and Canada and are celebrating World Interfaith Harmony Week in ways unique and suited to their own communities.You can read more about their celebrations here.
