IPSEC CONSULTING PROGRAMS
In order to anticipate and prevent ideological conflicts, IPSEC offers the “round table” program as a structural setting for the development of meaningful conversations between religious leaders and academics in general for the purpose of anticipating potential ideological conflicts. Once such potential ideological conflicts are identified, the “preventive diplomacy” program focuses on developing tools and solutions to prevent such ideological conflicts from erupting. |

Round Tables
Organized religions and universities are settings for the formation of tomorrow’s leaders, and as such, issues bearing the potential of religious influence, interference and obstruction, are addressed in an anticipatory fashion. Because collective violence is driven by economics and meaning, religion is an institution which defines the meaning of life and drives economic attitudes. Therefore, the “roundtable program” serves as a venue to engage established and promising world-class academics from arts and sciences, whose thinking and work affects the world of economics, business, politics, science and technology. For this purpose, IPSEC established a partnership with the Athenaeum University from Bucharest Romania, and a symposium program with the Scientific Press from Cambridge, MA.

Preventive Diplomacy
Ideas lead to actions and actions create new ways of thinking (and acting), which often clash with the old paradigms. Fortunately, such conflicts can often be anticipated. IPSEC offers a preventive diplomacy consulting program which focuses on the geographic areas marked by the presence of Orthodox Christianity. The program is designed to take “diplomatic action” at the earliest stage, so as to prevent disputes from arising and potentially escalating into conflicts. Potential conflicts can involve various issues ranging from political ideologies and religious identity to issues related to science and technology, business and public policy. |
