AFS enables people to act as responsible global citizens working for peace and understanding in a diverse world. We acknowledge that peace is a dynamic concept threatened by injustice, inequity, and intolerance. AFS seeks to affirm faith in the dignity and worth of every human being and of all nations and cultures. We encourage respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms without distinction as to race, gender, language, religion or social status. AFS activities are based on our core values of dignity, respect for differences, harmony, sensitivity, and tolerance.
