Mission and Objectives

Mission
ISU aims to mediate the western and eastern thinking, in philosophy and psychology. In addition to establishing the need for a confrontation, it will promote practical knowledge and application of the most suitable principles for an intercultural exchange, tending to the development of transpersonal psychology, which make extensive use of alternative categories and ways of thinking to the understanding of man.
  The goal is not specialized or archaeological: you are convinced that only by the disclosure and an accessible presentation of the various areas of research, you can stimulate the possibility of dialogue. Great attention will also be paid to all the theorists who have distinguished themselves by their work of promoting a world philosophy, away from Eurocentrism and exoticism: components that, unfortunately, for some time hinder a serious close examination of the issues in question.”
The Library.
With over 5000 volumes and more than 500 magazines including those completed and in progress, it is the result of a systematic collection of materials documenting the interests and the cultural commitment of this long experience. Schematically there are three sectors that comprise: religious sciences, humanities, international issues.
The School of Oriental Philosophy and Comparative. It is an initiative "higher education" of national level which was signed by many scholars as teachers of the most important Italian and foreign universities. And 'it sponsored by the University of Urbino
The Centre of Social Research, whose purpose is the production of qualitative knowledge of the marginal areas of our territory: knowledge of lifestyles, expectations, cultures with a particular attention to the action of volunteering. Reference point is the change of the Rimini company and the relationship with the condition of marginalization and social exclusion. Several researches have been carried out in recent years, in the field of immigration, the homeless, volunteering, etc.
