Griset Lecture: A New Kind of Peacemaking
Combating Gender Violence in the Congo
Tuesday, March 3, 2020
7:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. PST
In the wake of decades of war and after soldiers came home, a “culture of rape” followed them. Sexual violence and domestic violence seemed normalized. The problem was not simply a matter of crime and punishment but the erosion of community values. How could that be reversed? How could a culture of peace be created? The answer is a story of Christian and Muslim Interfaith leaders, critical readings of Biblical stories of rape, year-long discussions, and social action plans.
