Beschreibung des Angebots

The media often reports about religiously motivated acts of violence. At the same time, throughout history, religions repeatedly contributed to peacebuilding. In the CAS Religion, Peace & Conflict you will reflect upon these ambivalences with experts from academia and practice and look into concrete case studies and peacebuilding approaches relating to religion.

Your benefits:

• Learn about concrete methods of conflict analysis and discuss which roles religiously motivated actors play in conflict contexts

• Study conflicts with a religious dimension through case studies and learn about different peacebuilding approaches to transform these conflicts
• Unpack contested notions such as „radicalization“ and „extremism”
• Exchange experiences and become part of a community of practice

Our on-site and virtual courses are taught by highly experienced experts from different contexts and provide a platform for learning, reflection, and exchange among accomplished professionals and people who aspire to develop a career in peacebuilding.
