Asian Rural Institute
http://www.ari-edu.org/en/
The mission of the Asian Rural Institute is to build an environmentally healthy, just and peaceful world, in which each person can live to his or her fullest potential. This mission is rooted in the love of Jesus Christ. To carry out this mission,
we nurture and train rural leaders for a life of sharing.
Leaders, both women and men, who live and work in grassroots rural communities primarily in Asia, Africa and the Pacific, form a community of learning each year together with staff and other residents. Through community-based learning we study the best ways for rural people to share and enhance local resources and abilities for the common good.
We present a challenge to ourselves and to the whole world in our approach to food and life.
