The Guild of Interfaith Media Practitioners (GIMP) is established to:
- Support mass media practitioners reporting on religion to strengthen mass media promotion of interfaith dialogue towards achieving religious tolerance and harmony in Nigeria.
- Build professional network of religion columnists and journalists involved in covering and writing news stories and articles on religion; deepening their understanding of religious pluralism to reflect in their work.
- Continually enlighten members of the public that Religious Dialogue is neither a forum for superiority of any religion nor an opportunity to convert people from their faith but a level playing ground for mutual understanding, cooperations and acceptance in a multicultural society like Nigeria.
- Encourage Journalists to see the role of the Mass Media in Interfaith Dialogue as a Social responsibility and advancement of Good Journalism practice.
- Collaborate with governmental and non-governmental agencies involved in the promotion of interfaith dialogue and cooperation in Nigeria and other parts of the world.
- Embark on intensive public enlightenment on religious tolerance using conventional media as well as the social media.
