Come this summer and take your choice of five-day courses for personal inspiration, professional development or for academic credit.  The sixth annual Canadian School of Peacebuilding (CSOP), a program of Canadian Mennonite University (CMU), will be held in Winnipeg, MB, June 16-20 and June 23-27, 2014.The CSOP is for anyone interested in learning more about peace and justice. 

The CSOP community is made up of stay-at-home moms, pastors, business people, farmers, teachers, grandfathers, nurses, students, and many others, from here in Winnipeg and from around the world.  It’s a great place to learn together with a wildly diverse community and to find knowledge, skills and inspiration for the work of peacebuilding.

Here is what past participants have said about the School:

 

“My week at CSOP has been an incredible opportunity to meet and make friends with people whose stories I will take with me always.  I have been inspired by the strength and trust amongst the community here, and have seen how quickly complete strangers can become a family.  Although we may be separated by continents or oceans in the future, CSOP is a great reminder of how connected we all are through humanity and hope.”    

-Rosalind Crump

 

“In my Reconciliation and Forgiveness course I learned skills that I can take back to my workplace, community and family.   I was provoked at an intellectual and emotional level to be a better person.  My understanding of conflict is increased by magnitudes.”    

-Vincent Eagan
