Euphrates recently piloted a new course for PPA alumni, Discovering and Actualizing Our Gifts as Peace Leaders. A group of 15 peace leaders from 9 countries came together through a 5-week intimate journey of self-discovery with community support. This course supported leaders in identifying, honing, and embodying one’s gifts, values, and desired commitments in peace practice and social change.
As we came together for our final call of 2024, one message stood out: peacebuilding is a deeply personal practice that calls for collective compassion, and it is essential for the healing of our world. To honor this important work, Peace Practice Alliance alumni shared valuable insights from their own peacebuilding journeys..
One of the greatest strengths of the Peace Practice Alliance is its diverse community of peace leaders who learn from and support one another. This October, Francoise (PPA ‘24) from Cameroon and Edris (PPA ‘23) from Afghanistan brought their shared vision for peace to life in Yaoundé, Cameroon, where they partnered to support refugees from the Central African Republic.
