2026 Offerings

When: Thursdays @ 2:00 PM GMT (Check your local time here)
Each session is an intensive 2-hour deep dive.

Thursday, March 12: Intro to Violence Prevention
This workshop explores violence as a changeable behavior and empowers you to step in as an effective interrupter. By exploring the "third side" perspective, you’ll learn how to bridge divides and spark new partnerships for peace.

Thursday, April 16: Intro to Interfaith Engagement
This workshop introduces the fundamentals of interfaith engagement and provides a roadmap for effective interfaith collaboration. You will learn how to design an interfaith event that is inclusive and appropriate to your context, as a starting point to building relationships across religious and cultural divides.

Thursday, May 14: Intro to Earth Restoration and Collective Healing
This workshop connects our capacity for Earth-care with a practical toolkit for ecological regeneration and collective healing. By blending indigenous and sacred wisdom with modern natural and human sciences, we will imagine and build new possibilities for our shared future.

These workshops are designed in an interactive and learner-centered way, where you are invited to bring your wisdom and experience to learn with interfaith peacebuilders from around the world. 

The 2026 offerings are structured to help you:

  • Enhance Local Impact: Translate interfaith values into measurable actions within your organization and community.
  • Bridge Wisdom Traditions: Learn to integrate ancient sacred wisdom with modern social and natural sciences.
  • Build Resilience: Master the "Health Approach" to violence prevention and hate speech to create safer, more inclusive spaces.
  • Strengthen the Network: Connect with a global cohort of peacemakers to share best practices and spark new collaborations.

The series is therefore designed to offer practical, skill-based tools for those working at the intersection of peacebuilding, ecological justice, and community organizing.
