A comprehensive selection of valuable peacebuilding and advocacy tools and resources from the JISRA programme.
The Joint Initiative for Strategic Religious Action (JISRA) was a five-year peacebuilding programme that worked across faith community lines to address religious violence and discrimination, reconcile divided communities, and promote peaceful, inclusive and just societies.
Many stories of transformation came out of the JISRA project across all the countries we worked in. This is a small selection of case studies demonstrating the impact of this peacebuilding programme.
