Maryland Institute for Dialogue is a non-governmental organization which has come out of the Turkish-American community of Maryland to foster multicultural understanding, and as such reflects Maryland's Turkish-American community's enthusiasm to promote intercultural dialogue.
Dialogue with a
Purpose
We, as Maryland Institute for Dialogue, truly believe
in that democracy is the most suited form of administration
for human being to enjoy his/her fundamental rights
and freedoms. Therefore, the march of nations toward
democracy should not, and indeed cannot, be reversed.
Yet, it is crucial to realize that well-functioning
democracies and justice could be attained, and maintained
only by people who are respectful to one another’s
rights, accept each other as they are, and live only
to let live.
In Maryland Institute for Dialogue,
we strive to create local and global consciousness for
the necessity of intercultural dialogue among the world
communities, which would gradually but consistently
pave road to a tolerant world.
We sincerely believe that one day the
entire world will be more peaceful and more tolerant
place. In Maryland Institute for Dialogue, we are just
working humbly and dedicatedly to bring that day closer.
