Oxford House's (OHR) vision is to act in an enlightened and effective way to promote global harmony and inspire human flourishing. To fulfil its vision, in a credible and effective way, OHR's ethos is international, compassionate, moral, practical and inclusive.OHR's primary mission is to ensure complex cultural, ethical and religious dimensions to world affairs are fully integrated in academic analysis and institutional decision-making. To achieve this, Oxford House offers a broad range of services to governments, institutions, and individuals world-wide to enhance their understanding, encourage their engagement and empower their actions to be sophisticated, practical, ethically rigorous and effective.OHR was founded in 2010, inspired in part by 9/11 and prolonged conflict in Northern Ireland, the Middle East, North and sub-Saharan Africa, Iraq and Afghanistan – and, indeed, many other parts of the world – where culture, spirituality, and religious institutions, determined the history, rationale and character of the conflict and of society, its leaders, military, media, dreams, education, popular past-times, and prevailing ethical norms.The world has changed much since 2010, but the need for careful study and wise engagement with its complex cultural and religious identity has not.Over the years, OHR has acted to network academics, specialist analysts, diplomats, politicians, advocacy groups and businesses to safeguard the depth, accuracy, relevance and impact of their engagement with the world. By cross-fertilising perspectives and encouraging a generous, courageous, creative quest for the ‘common good', OHR has won many friends. Often working behind the scenes in complex situations, it has promoted peace and human flourishing by encouraging patience, integrity, humility, and acceptance of cultural and religious diversity.Not all will accept the gentle, discrete, thoughtful moderation that OHR commends. We hope, however, you will.
