Since the 1960s, UPF's founders have advocated a future vision of the human community based on interdependence, mutual prosperity and universal values.

We need, in every city in the world, a house of God that … is accommodating to all people of God without discrimination.

We should be advocating for prosperity, peace and security for everyone, remembering that we are all equal under one God.

Through isolation and separation we cannot create a prosperous and peaceful world. The only way is to interact and get involved in the problems of our society.
