Since its inception, the mandate of WISCOMP has
remained focused on generating an inclusive discourse and facilitating
research on conflict resolution, security and peacebuilding. Through
its various programs and initiatives, WISCOMP seeks to contribute to
a corpus of knowledge in these fields. It seeks to interrogate the existing
discourse and expand the terms of engagement, opening up new areas of
enquiry and scholarship.
Wiscomp
was established as part of the efforts of the Foundation for Universal Responsibility
to build a culture of coexistence and nonviolence that is gender-sensitive
and inclusive. A not-for-profit, non-sectarian, non-denominational organization,
the Foundation promotes universal responsibility in a manner that celebrates
a diversity of beleifs and practices, and that contributes to a global ethic
of nonviolence, coexistence and gender equity. The work of the Foundation
is global in its reach and transcends nationalist political agendas.
