If you want to start experimenting with your own community peacebuilding, you might check out our "Getting Started With Community Peacebuilding" quick guide, with an overview of our Understand-Connect-Collaborate process and ideas for digging in.
LISTEN TO OUR PODCAST
DIG DEEPER
To learn more about peace theology and the many dimensions of conflict transformation, join us at the Christian Peacebuilding Network, a collaboration we launched with several other Christian peacebuilding organizations. A highlight is the in-depth series of learning modules to dig deeper into relevant topics. We've also created Reflection Guides for each module so that they can be used with small groups.
LEARN AND ACT WITH US
Peace Catalyst regularly offers learning opportunities covering a range of topics: interpersonal conflict skills, Nonviolent Communication, trauma awareness, social movements, peace theology, and more. We also occasionally run learning cohorts that go through the CPN learning guides together. We'll post about those on our Events page and through our social media, below, along with local opportunities for peacemaking alongside our on-the-ground teams.
We're also happy to speak to a church or group about peace theology and peacebuilding, or run a workshop or course. Contact us to let us know if that would interest you or your community.
