Christians explore nonviolent approaches to protecting victims of violence
Christians working against violence are convening a major symposium this weekend on the responsibility to protect people exposed to violence, abuse and genocide and its relation to peacemaking.
The event at the Ammerdown Centre in Bath, from 18-20 July 2008, combines two meetings - the Church & Peace Britain & Ireland Regional Conference 2008 and the London Mennonite Theology Forum.
Keynote speakers include Doug Hostetter (Mennonite Central Committee Liaison to the United Nations), Hansuli Gerber (World Council of Churches Decade to Overcome Violence Co-ordinator) and Marie-Noëlle von der Recke (Church & Peace General Secretary).
