Personal Reflection
At the End of the One-Year COFP Fellowship Program:
An Unforgettable Experience
“The COFP Fellowship program has offered me tremendous opportunities to better understand the ‘Otherness’ of people who don’t share our faith and creedal philosophy. I have gained excellent knowledge and insights on peaceful dialogue, mediation and conflict resolution, and leadership. My community project provided a unique opportunity to make critical contributions to fostering community peace and addressing diverse enablers of violence at different social strata. The COFP Fellowship program has allowed me build an enhanced skillset for making a difference in the society. The experiential learning has offered immense value and I truly appreciate the Cardinal Onaiyekan Foundation for Peace for building Peace Ambassadors.” ~~ Abbas
