ONGOING ACADEMIES

The 2nd HWPL International Christian Peace Academy (ICPA)

The 2nd HWPL International Christian Peace Academy (ICPA)

The International Christian Peace Academy (ICPA) is a program that leads to understanding through learning rather than persuasion. Reflecting together on Scripture allows participants to reconsider assumptions and expand the possibilities of coexistence. It is a space where individuals from different backgrounds share biblical wisdom, seek to understand one another’s faith as it is, and explore a better path forward together—this is the 2nd International Christian Peace Academy (ICPA). The 2nd International Christian Peace Academy(ICPA), to be held in 2026, builds on this purpose by addressing a theme that holds significant meaning within Christian faith.
