International Cooperation Council

A New Age organization formed as an international coordinating body for educational, scientific, cultural, and religious organizations that "foster the emergence of a new universal person and a civilization based on unity in diversity among all peoples." Originally formed to propagate the ideals and activities of several such organizations during the International Cooperation Year, it was voted into being in 1965 by the General Assembly of the United Nations. It has since been reformed under the title Unity-in-Diversity Council, with the aim of linking metaphysical and New Age groups worldwide.
