ABOUT

RfP Japan was established in 1972 as a committee for the International issues supported by the Japanese Association of Religious Organizations. Since then, RfP Japan has engaged in advocacy on nuclear abolition, protection of the global environment, refugees support including Indochinese, Cambodian and Syrian refugees, education and reconciliation, humanitarian assistance, disaster relief, prevention of human trafficking, and other peacebuilding activities through dialogue and cooperation across religions in Japan.

The purposes of RfP Japan are;
1. Calling on religious communities to deeply reflect on their practices, address any that are exclusionary in nature, and engage in dialogue with each other in the spirit of tolerance and understanding.
2. Facilitating multi-religious collaboration in making peace initiatives.
3. Working with peace organizations in all sectors and countries to address global issues.
4. Implementing religiously-based peace education and awareness-raising activities.
