A global reimagining of Christian peacebuilding in Northern Ireland

Our current political and community context continues to be defined by impasse and apathy. Consequently, if the Church is to contribute to a new social contract built on authentic reconciliation, we need a new vision in post-conflict community relations built on the primacy of relationship.

Thrive Ireland's conference will explore this theme by reinvigorating vision and practice through cross cultural learning from Rwanda and Zimbabwe.

  • The Church and nation building
  • Global learning and the primacy of relationship
