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. Your benefits: Our on-site and virtual courses are taught by highly experienced experts from different contexts and provide a platform for learning, reflection, and exchange among accomplished professionals and people who aspire to develop a career in peacebuilding. The Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS) Religion, Peace & Conflict is offered annually and runs from fall to fall. It is composed of an Introductory Module to Peacebuilding and Conflict Analysis, a Thematic Module to explore the topic of Religion, Peace & Conflict (four courses) and a Concluding Module (Learning Portfolio and Concluding Day).

Successful participants are awarded a Certificate of Advanced Studies.
