Peace and conflict students at Fourah Bay University

The need for peacemaking and peacebuilding in any society cannot be over emphasised. We are all students at Fourah Bay University in Freetown, Sierra Leone. We study master of peace and conflict because we want to heal our country after 10 years of civil war. The search for peace has been a perennial task in human history. This challenge has become more urgent since the end of the Cold War between the West and the East.

The Peace and Conflict Programme is expected to be a bold and major African contribution to global peace efforts. The programme aims at providing students, drawn from Africa, and other parts of the world, with a practical understanding of the issues of peace and conflict in the modern world with particular reference to Africa based on the perspectives of a range of academic disciplines. The focus of the programmes is on how to produce peaceful outcomes from conflict situations. We want to spread the message of active non-violence and we would like to be connected with other peace-students or peace loving people worldwide.
