3) facilitate the creation of a local community of artists who network and collaborate together using art as a means to impact issues of peace and justice in the community where they live.
4) use the arts to speak about, inform, educate and create a dialogue on issues of peace and justice and thus to bring about positive change.
5) through educational activities, use the arts to expose children and youth to basic values of peace and justice.
