The major premise of AfJ initiative is based on promoting positive and constructive elements that could generate a just peace, through strengthening constituencies that can identify with these elements. AfJ upholds that reconciliation is a product of progressive efforts and it would not occur among the conflicting groups purely at the level of the masses where emotions run high. Sincere attempts need to be made to arrest hatred at the political, religious and ethnic levels so as to eradicate extremism and fundamentalism.
