Peacebuilding

God's call to build peace motivates us as Christians to act for justice and peace as passionate and responsible citizens.
The Christian Reformed Centre for Public Dialogue believes that Canada can play a constructive role in building sustainable peace with justice in Afghanistan. To this end, we are actively advocating for Canada to encourage the international community give significant new attention to diplomatic efforts to end the war, and that Canada support Afghan-led efforts for community-level reconciliation in Afghanistan. |
