project objectives


The Tolerance and Pluralism Promotion Center
is launching this web-project with a view to creating within the Internet of the Republic of Moldova reference sources and information resources dedicated to the promotion of basic principles of tolerance, exclusion of conflicts and promotion of the inter-ethnical, inter-confessional and inter-cultural dialogue.

Opting for the exclusion of intolerance and of radical options from the daily practice, we set to offer you a lot of useful information with the help of which you will be able to promote the principles of tolerance in your family, at school, in the street, in your community, and, why not, in the country.
Hoping to become along the way friends and colleagues in the promotion of principles of peace, we propose you the following compartments of this site:

Overview - references to the materials of this site, news, announcements, useful information.

About us - you will find here an introduction of the Tolerance Center, its mission, goals and objectives, address and other such information.

Projects - this compartment is destined to reflect the activity of Tolerance
Center - the Center's current projects, the implementation process, reports.

Documents - compartment containing documents on tolerance, pluralism, respect for human diversities, culture of peace and human rights.

Publications - you will find here various materials gathered from different sources or developed by Tolerance Center, which will help you get an ample idea about tolerance, its forms and ways of promotion.

Forum - we expect here your proposals, criticism, suggestions and questions, the answers to which will also be published here. We hope to initiate through the forum more than one discussion on the issues approached within the project.

Links - vectors of other Internetresources with a similar theme.
The site is currently in the process of development. We set for the future to activate the other variants as well, and, of course, to place new materials, as interesting and as useful as possible. We will consider your proposals for the extension of the topical compartments and modification of the existent ones.

Tolerance and Diversity
101 tools of tolerance

One of the politically correct words that it’s in vogue to be in favor of these days is tolerance. But it’s a pernicious meme and a hypocritical one in may cases. To be really in favor of tolerance, you would have to tolerate all kinds of beliefs: racism, big government, prohibition, and or course intolerance. No, when people say they are in favor of tolerance they usually mean that they are against other people imposing their beliefs on them and that they’re willing to do the same in a limited way in return. I say in a “limited” way because it is the rare tolerant person who will stand by and not give an intolerant one a lecture on tolerance, or at least mumble something to passers-by after the offender has departed

Hate can only be conquered by resident-activists willing to promote tolerance. You may already be one of them. The ideas in this guide will help foster tolerance in yourself, your family, your schools, your workplace and your community. Some of the ideas are things to do. Some are things to think about. Some are things to remember.
But a word of caution is in order: This guide is not a sure-fire recipe for making the world a better place. These ideas are only some of the possibilities. The best ideas are those that work for you and your community.

Ideas for yourself

1. Attend a play, listen to music or go to a dance performance by artists whose race or ethnicity is different from your own.
