Programs and Activities

SUMMARY

a)    Nearly 700 (seven hundred) volumes related to Religion, Conflict and Peace have been collected so far.

b)   During the Literary Week of CTC in 2010, a conflict and peace-building story project was initiated by the CCPRA where CTC faculties were assigned to write stories about other communities involved in peace-building and conflict resolution efforts. These stories were enacted by different groups of students . We are now working at publishing these stories.

c)     A workshop titled “Engaging Conflict” was conducted on 28th August, 2010.

d)    CTC Alumni Meet which was hosted at the college campus on 19th– 20th August, 2010 addressed the theme, “Religious Resources for Peace-building,” in the form of paper presentation and other platforms like dramas, songs and open discussions.

e)    The faculty members are offering courses that address issues of conflict and human rights.

f)      Peace Media and Art (3rd-6th Nov. 2011) was a major project for the year 2011 and the Centre ended up investing much of its time and resources. This program was undertaken with the purpose to creatively write and speak about peace, justice and reconciliation. A team of 70 members from CTC travelled to Kohima and Dimapur where the message of peace was conveyed through drama and songs. Apart from the members of CTC, many well-known local artists also performed in both the districts. This program was undoubtedly the most remarkable initiative of the Centre this year thanks to the sincere support and positive response from many local churches and civil bodies.

g)     CCPRA in partnership with Henry Martyn Institute (HMI) Hyderabad conducted an intensive 4-days course on Islamic Studies and Inter-faith Relations from 29th August to 1st September 2011. There were 3 resource persons from HMI: Dr. M.M. Abraham (Associate Director, Academic), Mr. Abdul Kareem (Lecturer), and Mrs. Christy Femila (Lecturer). Ninety two students from 4 different colleges/seminaries in North-East India participated in this seminar: Clark Theological College, Baptist Theological College (3 students); Eastern Theological College, Assam (1 student); Manipur Theological College (5 students).
