Travel Study Seminars
The Presbyterian Peacemaking Program sponsors travel study seminars to different parts of the world to provide Presbyterians with the opportunity to learn firsthand from our partners about efforts for peace, justice and reconciliation in contexts of conflict, injustice and oppression. Participants return from these travel study seminars informed and transformed by their experiences, ready to share stories and bear witness to all that they have seen and heard.
Travel study seminars are planned in partnership with World Mission staff and mission co-workers and in cooperation with our partner denominations and organizations.
Participants in the Peacemaking Program's Travel Study Seminars will be:
- Inspired by experiences in cross-cultural and global contexts that are addressing peace and justice issues
- Equipped to bear witness to all that they have seen and heard and to strengthen their peacemaking witness
- Connected to partners engaged directly in peacemaking and justice work.
