The Peace Leaders Training Program by Al Shabiba Risala is a six-month formation journey for emerging Christian leaders who wish to become agents of peace and reconciliation worldwide.

 

Blending academic learning, biblical reflection, and practical action, participants explore peace and conflict studies, ethical leadership, reconciliation, and project design, all grounded in Scripture and the life of Christ. The programme equips leaders not just with knowledge, but with character, spiritual depth, and the tools to make a real-world impact.

 

Delivered through six immersive weekend modules (Friday–Sunday, once a month), participants learn from local and international academics, faith leaders, and peace practitioners, in partnership with the University of the Nations.

 

Working in small groups (“cells”), participants design and implement practical peacebuilding initiatives addressing real community needs. The journey concludes with a public graduation and commissioning, celebrating participants’ projects and growth. Graduates receive a Certificate of Completion issued in partnership with the University of the Nations.

 

This programme is perfect for anyone called to lead with integrity, bridge divides, and embody Christ’s love and reconciliation in a complex world.
