Network Membership
Join a network of over 50 organizations around the world that seek to support new ways of strengthening the positive engagement of religious and traditional peacemakers in peace and peacebuilding processes. The Network supports collaborative work and engagement. Working collaboratively is more than just the intersection of common goals – it involves engaged, collective determination to reach shared objectives of collaboratively supporting the positive role of religious and traditional actors.
How to get involved
There are many opportunities to get involved in Network activities, either as a Member or Supporter. If you believe that your organization would benefit from being a Member of the Network and meets the criteria outlined in the Terms of Reference, please contact our Membership Coordinator, Rachel Palermo (rachel.palermo@kua.fi) to learn more about the membership process.
Organizations and individuals that have the capacity and the desire to advance the Network’s mission but are unable to commit to membership can still be Network Supporters. While Supporters do not have the right to vote, they are encouraged to contribute, based on their interests and capabilities, to specific activities and working groups. Apply to join the Network as a Supporter using this link!
Our Members & Supporters
The strength of the Network is in cooperation. The Network is formed from an array of actors, including inter-and-intra-governmental agencies, regional bodies, academic institutions, international and national organizations, civil society, and most importantly, religious and traditional peacemakers.
