Religious traditions can play an ambivalent role: in some settings, they can spark violence or act as a powerful driver of conflict. In others, they can be a resource for peaceful actions in being a ‘connector’. Faith-based actors and institutions have a central role in harnessing the religions potential for strengthening social cohesion, building peace and transforming conflict.

Aiming to support the efforts of faith-based multipliers, the manual ‘Peace education meets religion: A manual for multipliers´ offers a collection of 18 basic and in-depth peace education methods for application in and between religious communities around the world. A critical-constructive reflection in 8 points on the topic as well as a guide for facilitators complete the collection of methods.
