Ikeda Center for Peace, Learning, and Dialogue

Ikeda Center for Peace, Learning, and Dialogue The Ikeda Center is an institute for peace, learning, and dialogue located in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Since 1993, the Ikeda Center's core practice has been to engage scholars, students, spiritual practitioners, social innovators, and others in openhearted and open-minded dialogue in pursuit of a shared vision for future progress and well being. To this end, we organize and conduct seminars and public forums designed to cultivate the "humble willingness to learn from others" that Center founder Dai

saku Ikeda identifies as "profoundly meaningful, invariably fostering deep, empathetic connections." We also publish dialogue and other multi-author books focused on this same goal of creating a shared vision for global well being.
