Program accomplishments

  • IEF promotes character-based education as the most fundamental part of human education. IEF believes that individuals who developed their character and heart through quality character-based education become the most fundamental basis for creating healthy family, society and a world of peace. IEF believes that we must start with creating morally healthy individuals in order to ultimately achieve a world of peace, which is our final goal.To this end, IEF held a few conferences on such topics as Need for Moral Education, Family as the School of Love and Conflict Resolution in the US and other countries during 2023 Fiscal Year. We shifted to online gatherings in the US since the onset of Covid-19 and mostly kept that way and held a few online discussion sessions. Other places such as Mombasa, Kenya, together with our regular associates we were able to host in-person conferences. Some of these conferences were collaborated with other non-profit organizations including traditional faiths and youth organizations which share similar views of education. IEF plans to strengthen its network of alliances with other like-minded organizations to reach more people.We continued updating aging teaching manuals we created more than 15 years ago. Back then we made 13 volumes of educational manuals as a result of our intense research and field practice. The updating will continue for a few more years. We held small discussion sessions as updating work progressed and fine-tuned the contents.
