CJP was founded to further the personal and professional development of individuals as peacebuilders and to strengthen the peacebuilding capacities of the institutions they serve.

A Commitment to Peace

The program is committed to supporting conflict transformation and peacebuilding efforts at all levels of society in situations of complex, protracted, violent or potentially violent, social conflict around the world.

A Diverse Community

Open to people from all cultures and religious traditions, CJP builds upon EMU's Christian/Anabaptist faith commitments. The rigors of academic specialization are combined with practical preparation for a life of peacebuilding.

At CJP you'll find a learning community full of diversity and rich experience. Relationships between students, faculty and staff become long-term partnerships that provide mutual support and learning.

World Renowned Programs

CJP is comprised of the Graduate Program in Conflict Transformation and the Practice & Training Institute, which also houses the Summer Peacebuilding Institute (SPI) and Seminars on Trauma Awareness and Reslience (STAR).
