This unique five-day intensive Institute, hosted by WEA Peace and Reconciliation Initiative partner the Duke Divinity School Center for Reconciliation, serves to nourish, renew, and deepen the capacities of Christian leaders in the ministry of reconciliation, justice, and peace-building through creating a diverse learning community that engages the best in theological scholarship and practical wisdom for ministry.
