Philosophy
The terms East and West are not only name which reflect place or time. It’s not important if the sun rises in certain place and sets in another; rather what is really count is the diversity and integration of the two contrasts. East and West mean the existence of the other in our life in everywhere despite all its contradictions. Our species to another species, our religion to another religion and our belief to another belief. The other may agree or disagree with us, but what solves this difference is dialogue not conflict. Therefore, The relation between east and west as the centre see it is a “ we “ relation not an “ I” relation which is based on (partnership , respect , dialogue and integration). Depending these principles, east and west centre builds all its work to upgrade human being everywhere. East and west centre believes as well that youth in east and west are the most capable of achieve positive change on all human, social, economical , political and environmental levels, both on the local and international dimensions to achieve the seeked after peace.
