Harnessing the Power of Dialogue and Collaboration
Understanding the Challenge
Social distance, ignorance, injustice, and exceptionalism fuel misunderstanding, mistrust, and conflict. These factors often lead to insecurity, especially when religious beliefs and practices are misused or disrespected. The manipulation of religion for political and personal agendas has heightened tensions in Nigeria and Africa. Addressing these challenges requires an honest examination of the root causes and their impact on communities.
The Need for a Paradigm Shift
The challenges of today demand a new generation of leaders who are informed and compassionate. These leaders must understand their faith and those of others to navigate the complexities of modern society. Fostering peaceful coexistence requires a shift in mindset—one that promotes dialogue and mutual respect, breaking down barriers of ignorance and fear.
Our Approach
We believe that peace can be achieved by harnessing the strength of faith communities and civil groups. By preventing violent extremism through understanding and collaboration, we create a foundation for unity. This process begins with equipping individuals with knowledge about diverse beliefs, fostering mutual trust and a sense of shared purpose.
Empowering for Change
Peacebuilding is not just the government’s duty—it is everyone’s responsibility. Religious leaders and community actors have a pivotal role to play in countering violent extremism. We provide training in conflict transformation and peacebuilding to empower these stakeholders with the tools needed to promote harmony and build sustainable peace.
