Universal Tolerance

Universal Tolerance Organization (UTO) is an independent non-governmental humanitarian organization based in Drammen, Norway. Established in 2012, the organization aims to contribute to global peace, security, justice, democracy, respect for human rights and sustainable development through understanding the concept of positive/active tolerance and its application in practice. Furthermore, it encourages the idea that all kinds of discrimination can be prevented, eliminated or reduced through true realization of active/positive tolerance in every aspect of life. These aspects include religious, political, cultural, ethnic and social norms, rights, structures and traditions. This way we have started to analyze problems associated with all types of intolerance from psychological, sociological, philosophical, legal and historical perspectives.
