A unique workshop is to take place this summer to support the peacebuilding efforts of young Anglicans.
The Peacebuilders’ Exchange: Transforming conflict, Changing Lives is a 10-day programme being run by Anglican Alliance to develop the peacebuilding skills of young Anglicans
The workshop is taking place in collaboration with Coventry Cathedral's Community of the Cross of Nails.
The community was established after the cathedral was devastated during a German airstrike in 1940 and works for peace, justice and reconciliation.
The workshop takes place in July and coincides with the community's Golden Jubilee.
Participants will come from countries damaged by conflict in Africa, Asia and Latin America, and will look at ways to prevent conflict, while building the role of women in peace-building initiatives.
The workshop will also explore the role of conflict as a barrier to development and consider ways of building peace in multicultural and interfaith contexts, as well as the role of the church in building sustainable peace.
