Description

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.

Objectives

In this program you will:

Learn about concrete methods of conflict analysis and discuss which roles religiously motivated actors play in conflict contexts;
Get an overview of key terms and concepts regarding religion and explore ways in which religions can drive conflict and promote peace;
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.

Preconditions

The course is designed for practitioners and academics interested in bridging their experiences with academic insights and practical knowledge on Peacebuilding Methodologies.
