The Asian Muslim Action Network (AMAN) is calling for applications from peace
activists, community development workers and scholars for its next School of
Peace Studies and Conflict Transformation Course. The three-week course will
take place in Bangkok, Thailand, from 2-23 March 2011. It will include
workshops, lectures and exposure visits to local communities.
Since its debut in 2005, the annual three-week event has empowered a network of
community leaders, activists and scholars from across Asia. The School of Peace
Studies and Conflict Transformation focuses on conflict analysis and prevention,
peace building and understanding peace and conflict in local, regional and
international contexts. Emphasising respect for cultural and religious
diversity, participants examine how religious traditions can be a force for
peace, justice and social transformation.
Women and community workers in conflict areas are particularly encouraged to
apply. English proficiency required.
Applications close on 5 February 2011. No applications will be accepted after
this date.
Course Fees: $US 200
Travel costs from home country to Thailand are the responsibility of the
participant or sponsoring agency. Limited scholarships are available.
Participants are encouraged to find sponsors in their own country or region.
Please feel free to pass on information about the AMAN School of Peace Studies
and Conflict Transformation Course to your colleagues and networks.
Yours sincerely,
Ekraj Sabur
Deputy Director
